Title: Lowering problems
Post by: rakesh27 on 04 September 2009, 13:19

Guys,

Ive lowered my ride and getting problems with front right drive shaft hitting arb, should i get whiteline adjustable 22mm arbs front or drop links, what would work best.

Either the WL front ARB that sits under the shaft or a different one with bigger hoops would be the best options over the longer drop links, even though the longer DL's are the cheaper option you would find yourself getting the ARB sooner than later anyway :afro:

ive heard the drop links dont last long and will break so would be better off getting the antiroll bar

Thanks guys, i spoke to someone at demon tweeks or balance motorsports and they were adament that drop-links would work.

Thats why i asked, since the whiteline arbs front and rear adjustable are like gold dust, so hard to come by.

Looks like im gonna have to place my order in asap, so when the shipment comes i will get some. i just hope for now my car is ok, it only rubs when im pushing it around a corner very fast, i cant wait to get the arbs, hopefully problem gets sorted and i can go alittle more lower.

Once its done, i will post some picks of end result. i was thinking the golf 4 must be one of the best golfs in the range since the car sits very nicely on the road unlike the newer models where they all look like the civics no shape.

Go for the Whiteline ARB, it's a much better option then drop links and we sell both so have experience.
