Knocking on near side front

Had a slight knocking on the near side front.
Lower suspension bush was worn and lower ball joint moves very easy.
Ordered new bush and ball joint just changed them out today so will give it a spin later and see if its sorted.
If its ok will book it in for 4 wheel alignment check and get the steering wheel back to the centre as its just off at the moment. Its was like this when i bought the car.
Then we will see if the steering is better

Good job Steve - mine had a similar knocking and a near side ball joint sorted it

Very wise to get the tracking done - mine was all over the place and felt much better once corrected 2007 Zermatt Silver TDV8 Vogue SE - now sold but was a great car!

Not hard but need a bit heat on arm to get bush out if you use a vice like me but a press would make the job easier.
You can get the bus in a new arm ready to fit for a little bit more and its just a bolt and ball joint nut change the ball joint is only in with 2 torques bolts.

How long do they last? Replaced front arms last year / 18k miles ago and got knocking again?

Did you fit genuine LR parts from Land Rover or were they 'OE' from another source?
