I have just noticed that my 90 has 2 x Driver side swivel housings. The near side has a spare link. Hence each swivel housing has 2 levers for steering links.
Has anyone seen this before? And is it OK? All diagrams I have seeen show 2 a levers driver side, 1 x lever nearside Regards Pete 90

Why would drivers side have two? My nearside does as one is at the front for the drag link and one at the rear for the track rod. Offside just has one for the track rod

At some point (maybe TD5?) they changed to that setup so that left and right hand drive axles are basically the same.

Thanks chaps, I have a 110 petrol 2.5 with just one on the nearside. My 90, yes it is a TD5 do you know if they were built like that from the factory?

My TD5 front axle is like that, and I've seen other TD5s with same setup. So yes, they probably are.
