« on: 22 August 2012, 20:28 »

^^^ FAIL :tongue:

He's asking how to fit a ARB not what ARB to fit :tongue:

If you can do coilovers you can do a ARB. You have to lower the rear of the sub frame (or take it off completely) to slide it in and out apart from that its not to bad
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

As Steve said, if you've fitted your coilovers, you can swap an ARB no trouble. it's just a simple unbolt - bolt up job, just take your time and note everything that you do.

And make sure you get them bolts up tight again as If they are even slightly loose it can create Knocks!
