maybe hr have different bottom wishbone,but it could be a myth...people told me thats why i had a camber problem on my fc ute but it ended up being torana stubs causing the problem.many wreckers told me they are the same but i'd never believe a bloody wrecker....................and you must have the late hd ball joint front end?my hd prem had kingpins.was easier to swap the whole front end

A guru told me the other day HD and HR are different as the HR had wider or maybe it was narrower track there is a slight difference and the mark is on the lower control arm on the bottom side.


Also rims were differet offset one to the other.
