Is this how to fit a poly dog bone kit? Amazing diagram inside.

So after finding out the bolt holding the big end of the dog bone was well and truly seized, it had to be ground off. (ball ache)

Am I right in thinking this is the right place for the washers? It was a t**t to squeeze in!

Yes.
if its that tight to squeeze in, slacken off the couple of 13mm bolts that hold the black bar on to the gearbox, not loads but just enough to give you that extra couple of mm grace.

Well thank god for that. I wasn't prepared to chuck it back up on axles to move a washer!

Cheers.

yeah thats right, did mine last weekend, worst bit was burning out the old ones. and the gay ring on the big side.

washers were a pain too didnt bother slacking the arm off just hit the washers with a hammer seemed to work

Burning out... :/ just place the bar on a open vise and tap it out with a hammer.. Same with the small 1. Takes 5mins to knock old 1's out and new 1's in.

This. Easy to get out. It's land rover ones that you NEED to burn out!

You don't think i tried that already lol. It certainly would have required more than a "tap" to get it out i was worried about bending the arm since its only ally.
