Does anyone have any experience or knowledge of Landcruiser 100 series with IFS having problems with the lower control arms cracking. If you go to
http://www.outback4wd.com.au/outback_4wd_011.htm there is mention of this happening.

Have first hand experience with 9 now, and I dont think the ARB brackets are the fix either, as they still allow movement of the bend in the plate, which the weld on the arm doesnt like.
We also weld the inside of the join of the 2 bits of the A arm.
There are some pics [first 6] under photos / sliders and steps on my site www.the-shed.net

Where exactly do they crack. I have had a look at
mine and they don't look as though they are cracked, but maybe I am not looking in the right place.

GO_OFFROAD,
I checked the photos. The repair you did looks good. I notice you had pics of a Prado 120 - Is the A-Arm off the 120 or off a 100?

that is a 100 series arm, but the 120 pics are rear bars, slder steps, wider wheels, and
suspension lifts i do for 120, 90, 100 etc.

Do you do sliders for the 100?

Yep, we do proper sliders for the 100 IFS, the balck ones in the pics are fitted to an IFS 100, but the steel pearl metalic [
grey] is standard color.
