More progress with the moke resto and first of many problems 2 be confronted with.

Question 1, Mokes with 13" wheels have a longer rear radias arm, correct?
Question 2, If I measure from the grease nipple to the centre of the rear Hub i get 37cm, is this a long arm?
question3, does anyone have a LHS 13" arm

13" Moke rear arms are easy to pick,,, the shocky mounting pin isn`t directly in-line/behind the axle (it`s a few inches back up the arm)

easy-peasy & yeah i`m pretty sure i have 2 brand spanking new 13" moke trailing arms in stock here (one Left & one Right)

Changing arms is easy.
Changing `bushes' in a 13" Moke arm is easy- they don't have any!
They have 2 needle bearings, one at each end.
Once you get the old ones out, it's all easy- no (*^&%$^ bush to ream.
