  1. Hello all, As it rained on Saturday I swapped ‘sunroof removal’ for ‘start rear-beam dismantling’ and I’m looking for a bit of advice with what to do with it next please. Unless I absolutely have to I don’t want to be pressing the bearings out of the tube nor do I want to be removing stub axles from the trailing arms. My plan is just to get it in bits, give it all a good clean, paint and lube and replace the seals prior to rebuilding with the nylon mounts I have ordered from Baker BM; but it’s a bit confusing. My ARB seems to only have a single largeish ribbed rubber seal on each end which I believe is number 5 on the diagram below (5172 24 Bearing Bush). However, the diagram also shows 5174 03 Crossmember Seal (number 6) but I don’t have these on my car, unless they have just totally disintegrated! The other obvious one is the rubber plug (4) as I had to dig mine out to get the ARB wound out but this is listed with three part numbers (5179 06, 5179 07 and 5179 11) all with different diameters. Without proper Servicebox access (B*stards!) I can’t search on my VIN to narrow it down for my 1.6. Any thoughts on which one I would need for a 1.6 with drum brakes please or could I just measure the hole and use generic rubber/plastic plugs from ebay or the like? Here’s a picture of what came off one end of my ARB as the lever plate came off. I’ve marked the picture up – (1) is what I have described as the largeish ribbed seal – is this definitely part number 5172 24 Bearing Bush please? Arrow number two on my picture is pointing to what might be the remnants of a seal but I just can’t tell – either way do I need to a pair of these from the museum https://www.pieces-de-rechange-classic.com/205/6851-joint.html and do they get installed on the outside of the ribbed rubber seal when I rebuild please? Thanks all Ian.
