adjustable drop links
« on: 28 January 2015, 21:10 »
hi there
seems as ive read in other posts im having a common proberlem with my car been lowered which is the arb rubbing on the drive shafts on full lock
could anyone help we out with a few things please?
1. is do the adjustable drop links fix this as ive read they need to be shorter than the smallest setting on the adjustables?
2. if i was to get a seat leon cupra r arb would i then need the drop links and would the adjustable ones fit it
3. last thing is im currently running 16" stand alloys and hoping to put 18s on in the near future and was wondering if ill have to get the arb to get as low as poss on the 18s or would the standard work with the wheel size been different

all this mk 4 modding is new to me as ive always had the mk2s and lot what i had was lowered and such before id got them so never had these issues

ill be grateful for any advice as one of the drop links have now snapped on my car and im not been able to use it so i want to get it fixed asap
thanks in advance and sorry if these questions have been answered before
