Default Front lower control arms??
Hi, I've disassembled and painted the front end of a ser 3 XJ6 and I'm now puting it back together with new bushes etc. How do I tell the lower control arm left from right?

When I took mine apart I marked which side it came from and kept sides separate.

Notice the apex of the wishbone is off set a bit.

These go on the Right side; the ball joint mount goes Forward.

I was going to say MARK THEM BEFORE HAND, but a tad late now.

THANK YOU Elinor.
