The radius arm wouldn't fit in the o/s, because the gap was a few mm too tight, I didn't want to file the KAD bracket, so I just opened it up with a portapak. It just pushed the inner subframe web in a little.rolesyboy wrote:Out of interest what were the alignment ussues Nick?

I had an identical issue when fitting KAD arms, I opted to machine the arms to fit.Nick W wrote:The radius arm wouldn't fit in the o/s, because the gap was a few mm too tight, I didn't want to file the KAD bracket, so I just opened it up with a portapak.

Me three.
I bought one of the radius arm kits that come with shims and used those (with decent pins).
