Drop links and ARB on 2014 v8 Autobiography

Hi, I have a 2014 TDV8 Autobiography that has some slight knocking at the front when going over uneven ground.
I'm thinking that the drop links and antiroll bar bushes are an obvious place to start but not sure which I need and is it a straight forward replacement similar to other cars?

Just not sure as I have heard that I may have an active stabiliser (no idea how I check)

Any help would be really appreciated

Thanks

You'll have the active (hydraulic) ARB. Dead easy to replace the bushes. Just unbolt it, drop it down and support it with a jack, replace the bushes then bolt it back in place. I did mine and a couple of years back, along with the drop links for good measure.

Part numbers:
Bushes - LR048451
Links (same both sides) - LR035489

BWI are OEM for the bushes, Delphi are OEM for the links.

Bolts:
LR050753 x 4 (M12)
LR045743 x 2 (M14)

Torque specs:
ARB link nuts 185Nm
ARB bush brackets 110Nm
ARB frame to body:
M12 (smaller) bolts - 4 off
Stage 1: 90 Nm
Stage 2: 180°
M14 (larger) bolts - 2 off
Stage 1: 140 Nm
Stage 2: 120° Kev

Don’t make the mistake I did and fit Febi Bilstien ones, chased a horrific knocking noise for 8months/4000 miles.

Genuine fitted and now fine.

It seems that there is no access whatso ever to the bushes from the top so I am assuming that you need to take the bracket from underneath it (think there are three bolts). Then I assume the bolts for the D bush holder are accessed from beneath it.

I was concerned what the bracket was for so didn't want to just remove it

Is the above correct and if so is anyone aware of any video's so I can sanity check myself please?

That's right, you just unbolt it and drop it down on a jack.

Here's a pic from when I did mine a while back...



Make sure to check the workshop manual. It can be found in the wiki. Kev

What make are genuine ones or good quality ones?

As above. Genuine in this case meant I ordered them from Land Rover to be on the safe side as was at the end of my tether.
