Default Looking for Group A rear suspension parts . . .(with pics)

I am looking for the end parts that connect the rear arms to the rear beam. Basically I have the square beam and early group A gravel arms with the end links. I need the connector parts to the beam (rose joints, spacers, etc.)

Anyone have these available?

OK, here's what I got . . . the beam is the gravel spec, and the arms are early Group A






I've got the big parts, just need the small bits and probably a bearing and seals for the other arm.[/img]

think you also need drive shaft aswell, as there different length when using this set up im led to believe. Due to the wider track

I know the arms are the early Group A (non wide track), but the beam is later Group A. Since I don't have the mounting points, it's tough to guess on the driveshafts. I think the 7" diff and shafts should work out - hopefully it's the arms that matter.

just need the remaining parts and time to fit . . .
