Defender steering drop arm ball joint conversion, repair kit SUMOBARS RGB000010

You are currently on my SUMOBARS & STEERING ITEMS. Page in the shop categories. 1 x Defender Steering Drop Arm Conversion Kit with. 3 0mm Solid S teering Bar. RHD, (will only fit 4 bolt steering boxes). These are made in the UK not cheaper imports.

These steering bars are our 30mm Solid Heavy Duty ones. (SUMO-HD----) they are 30mm solid EN8 steel bar, designed to be used by all, on and off road, they also include our Heavy Duty Greaseable track rod ends. If you need any information on these please contact me on the contact details above.

This is a conversion kit to change the (swan neck) drop arm on the Defender to the (straight) Discovery drop arm. This is a much better. Drop arm for a Defender as it eliminates the ball joint (the one that wears out quickly) that is pressed into the swan neck drop arm and replaces it with a standard track rod end which is much easier to replace. Picture 4 shows the 2 different Drop Arms, the lower one is the Straight Discovery Drop Arm that is included in our kit, as you can see it uses a track rod end and not a press in ball joint that is difficult to replace.

If you are finding it difficult to remove your original drop arm with a puller, you can see in one of the pictures where a customer has cut a slot in the drop arm, it will then pull off much easier. See the last picture showing how to align the drop arm once fitted , the drop arm should point slightly towards the drivers side when driven in a straight line, also make sure you tighten and re check the nut that secures the drop arm to the steering box, this needs to be checked at least a couple of times after use due to the splined taper on the steering box. The Torque Setting for this nut is 176 NM , its is VERY IMPORTANT that the tightness of this nut is rechecked after use before finally knocking over the lock washer once you are satisfied the Drop Arm has fully worked up the tapered spline of the steering box and the nut remains tight. We can also do a kit for the early Discovery1 and RRc that don't have the straight style drop arm, you will have to contact me on this to put a kit together. 1 x SUMO-HD-830 Heavy Duty Drag Link.

We now manufacture 4 types of steering bars. SUMO-HD---- These are made from 30mm solid EN8 engineering grade CARBON STEEL BAR , designed to be used by all, on & off road. SUMO-HDH---- These made from 29mm hollow 7mm wall CDS engineering grade CARBON STEEL TUBE , designed to be used by ALRC competitors who must comply with hollow steering bar regulations & those wanting a strong steering bar without having that extra weight of a solid bar. SUMO-EXT---- These are made from. 32mm solid EN8 engineering grade CARBON STEEL BAR , designed to be used by off road competitors, these are very heavy duty. SUMO-SS---- These are made from 30mm solid 303 STAINLESS STEEL BAR , these bars are very strong, the stainless offers a much greater strength as it is 1.5 times stronger than steel, these bars can be used from on road to extreme off road use, they are also supplied with stainless steel locking nuts. All the sumobars are supplied with locking nuts. Are full nuts (not like the cheaper copies which come with half nuts), this is for strength and security with less chance of rounding the nut whilst tightening them, both ends of the sumobars have machined flats for ease of tightening the lock nuts to the bar and the. Is easily identified with a grove machined around the bar and the lock nut. Please remember all SUMOBARS are made from engineering grade steel, not to be confused with cheaper copy bars made from a low grade of mild steel. All threads on the bars are double checked and are greased with. Corrosion-protecting aluminium-copper paste, this will stop the track rod ends seizing in the bars at a later date.
