What's rubbing, arb on driveshaft? If so they may work, but often they don't

I'm not sure what rubs. I can't do a full lock right I know that.  Turn left fine, on coilovers slammed to the bottom on rear and leveled out on the fronts.

Arb replacement is the way to go

Yup will be ARB meeting driveshaft. Get yourself a TT/S3/R32 ARB and make some drop links up as per the thread Dom put up in the maintenance section

What so just putting these drop links on won't solve my issue?

I had the same issue and have taken wazzer and doms advice, audi tt mk1 ARB £22 arb bushes £5 and all the parts for adj droppings £47

So £75 ish and that will solve it mate, new ARB will go under the driveshaft instead of over and won't rub when slammed
