hi guys

have recieved my ARB from ash. got old one out no problem fitted passenger side splined lever and inserted it into the beam and done the m8 screw up loosely.
heres when my problem is. when i put the arb plate on the other side the splines dont line up with the m8 hole in the trailing arm.

also as theres no thread on the arb is it simply smacked on with a hammer.
any replys would be greatly welcomed.

Keeps turning it. They'll line up eventually - so I've heard.

Which reminds me, I really must get mine fittedLOL

If you want you could get a new gasket/washer set when you fot the new one, but apart form that its a simple swap.

The difference is a much flatter turning ability at speed, and huge grins

have had mine fitted for about 2 months now and what a difference, alot flatter when cornering and so much more predicable when the end steps out.

Errrr... Less roll on the rear! Laugh

Obviously the thicker the arb the more level both trailing arms are going to stay when loaded up one side.

when doing these guys... make sure you change the foam ring and the rubber rib part... if you dont you may/will get water getting in there and screwing up your trailing arm pins and bearings...Blink
