I have a pair in South Africa but can be shipped to you if you do not find them there.

Like hens teeth. Have you not got any already? Are they rusty or something?

There's a few rear subframes on ebay, might be worth contacting them and asking if they have the arms too.

There's this on ebay, looks like it still has the rear wheels on it

Yeah pretty rusty after a decade of being daily driven. If i can't find structurally sound replacements I'll have to get mine welded, if there's anything left to weld to.

Can any body tell me if there is a difference between the arms on 2 different side shafts lobo or push in?

The lobro joint does foul the push in shaft trailing arm, but the arm can be modified to give clearance

There's not much to them, welding should be quite straightforward. They are quite heavy though, postage from SA that's going to be a bit steep? The ones for my car were hardly used and still all shiny factory black paint.

I have a mk1 Sierra I am breaking. I haven’t touched the back end so expect I’ll have the parts you need? (Assuming they’re universal to all Sierras?).

At some point in the coming months I’ll be coming up by Chesterfield too.
