Eibach front arb owners 25mm
« on: 23 May 2011, 17:27 »
How low are you roughly (pics would help) and does it rub? Mine is pretty bad at the min after taking TT arb off and im not happy.

Thought the eibach 25mm one had bigger hoops to stop this?

My droplinks are cut down and wound in as far as you can go, so cant go any further on that.

is it definitely an Eibach one and not JOM? They look very similar but the JOM ones give no more clearance than a standard arb.

how much you cut off your droplinks bob?

Think im going to have to angle grind about 25mm off mine overall and the threaded section, after taking the nut off and wound them in.

Nothing, it's all standard apart from the ARB and I changed the bushes as well.  Lowered on Eibach Pro springs.
