DMGRS seem to have sold all of the good ones already - see https://www.dmgrs.co.uk/collections/...c-mg-pre-order (select PAIR or MEGA BUNDLE option in dropdown).


I think the OP is talking about the rear upper arm (bolted to the rear subframe) and not the front suspension.

The drain holes on the Indian arms are in a slightly different position - which means they don't line up with the drain cutouts in the rubber spring isolators, so water has nowhere to escape.

Pic: top is the Indian arm; bottom is the factory arm (note drain holes are further away from the vertical 'wall' of the dished area).



The way round it is to trim about 5ml off the edge of the rubber isolator, then the cutouts and the drain holes will line up. (Brian suggested this and I've done it).
