Is it true that after 40mm lowering on the mk4's i'll need to change the ARB?
What kind of ARB am i going to be needing? :rolleyes:

You should be ok with a 40mm drop. Anything more and you will need to changed ARB :smiley:

Thanks for your advice!
Star :cool:

mine was fine at 40mm mate but anything more i think you would need to change the arb :wink:

Goof stuff!! Havn't got the cash right not to spend on an ARB too so might just put it down on 40mm springs! :evil:

Haha if only i had that amount to spend :rolleyes: going to put the springs over standard shocks for the time being :evil: coilovers later in the year

Depends on the car really. i think some gtis may have been fitted with the anni arb.
mines lowered -80 all round and no rubbing. only time it has rubbed is when it was -120mm :D and that was only on very very very full lock (i.e. the last inch of turn in the steering wheel)
-
Oh i see :shocked: Pretty sure mines not though haha, its a 99' n.a :tongue:

well my mate had an anni and he was able to lower his well over 100 with the standard arb... think there was only a few turns of the coilovers left. mine i can go just over 100 i think with no arb rub, just a bit impractical for were i live...
not sure then... :grin:

Can you just fit adjustable drop links?
-
I've got 40mm lotec springs £50 no rubbings!
-
as said earlier in the thread at 40mm drop you shouldnt have any problems just as long as everything is in order like bushes etc :wink:
