Got the new arm.. Its so much more than the old one in every aspect.!
Although it had different mounting points for the steering damper - he showed me, it mounts to the bashplate under the radiator (the one that bent the oil lines bazzle), which seems very strange.
Any tips on what to do when fitting them? Anything that needs lubing or do's or donts?

My 2c I run a standard front arm with a spare on the Cargo Barrier. The rear is a heavier Cheezy one. Would rather have the front arm bend. 13 Years have only bent two Niisan ones and broke a rover one. Better than breaking a steering box.

Remove ols arm.
Wind steering wheel left to right till centred. OE mark on shaft in middle should be at top.
Take off your wheel and put back in middle.
Fit arm.
Drive down rd. Adj ball joint lenghts until S Wheel is central again. Grease new joints etc etc
