Wish I had would have saved the hassle, but I was silly enough to get one with bigger loops, but they weren't quite big enough.  :sad:

All sorted now tho and no issues with the awfull grinding noise. Lol

Jonny it wont work mate it will still rub. Better off selling the arb you bought and buy a tt, vrs, 4motion, R32 or s3 arb. they all go under the drive shaft which is what you need for the lows you want  :wink:
