Hi, right I changed the FARB bushes with standard ones but with the 17mm hole. Now as I removed the plastic coating where the bush goes onto I cracked the metal lip things, which led to them falling off that stops the ARB from moving about.

Basically is this bad? do I need to get a new arb?

Ive drove it and steering seems alot lighter although this may be because of the new bushes) theres sometimes a slight noise coming from the front when going over rumble strips but have not yet found ifits the arb or not.

rumble strips could be your rad mounts?

mmm I think youll need to get another ARB if the retaining collar has come off, otherwise it will move around.

all the best

You could fit jubilee clip around where the end stops used to be so the bar stays in place. A few folks have done this cheaper option.

lol

or upgrade it to the R32 23mm bar lol, then get the 28mm neuspeed rear one lol

good excuse now lol

Will a jubilee clip be sufficient enough? Im all for the cheaper option at this moment in time =-)

Will give the jubilee clips ago 2moz, if not im sure I can source some pipe clamps but if other people have no problems then jubilee's it is.

Whiteline RARB is already on just need the Coilies next + wishbone bushes oh and a job to fund this lol.

Im glad I fitted the dogbone bushes today without any problems.

Job done
