Have you tried white vinegar, it may be a limescale deposit, failing that it maybe an acid mark ... and will need a cutting compound...
What did you do with your Range Rover today

hard to tell but it looks like the knock i'm getting is the track control arm.. this beastie..
www.island-4x4.co.uk
but the manual seems to call it a tie rod in the pictures, but a rear lower arm in the torque specs? it lists the ball joint nut and bolts but no torque for the nut and bolt at the other end?
is this the ball joint i need?
www.island-4x4.co.uk
assume i have to jack the hub up to the correct height when torquing up the sub frame end so its at normal ride height?

Tightened at ride height yes!
Have you checked the rest of the suspension in that area yet?
Once you start replacing arms you end up going through all of them..
Not a big fan of multi link suspension..

Thanks!! Crikey that's tight. My torque wrench only goes to 100lbft!
I don't have a splitter, one of the few things i don't have! But looks like you only use it to split the arm from the ball joint.. I'll be replacing both so no need.
I'll keep the arm though to replace the bush at my leisure

The arm can move laterally on the bush without moving back.. I'm guessing it's not supposed to do that

Well things like tyres and suspension aren't really that important so I finally got round to some proper upgrades

my tailgate is starting to bubble with rust can anything be done before it gets worse or is it a case of getting one off a scrapper?
