Rock and Roll - Jabba Rear ARB?

Featured Replies

I've read several of the threads/reviews on the JabbaSport rear ARB for the Fabia. There is clearly a benefit to the handling of the vRS with the rear ARB helping to control the big lump of a TDi engine in the vRS.

However, will there be as significant benefit if fitted to a 1.4mpi, which is a more balanced car (with a lighter engine)? Has anyone fitted a rear ARB to a 1.4mpi and if so does it work?

NB> I have already got Koni Sport shock absorbers all round to go some way to improve the handling and vRS 16" alloys to give more grip.

The main point of the ARB is to reduce body roll through the corners so if your car still has this with the uprated suspension, then the ARB is for you :D You might also think about fitting the vRS front ARB too which is about

Busy afternoon at the office Chris?

I'm there already, I had to replace the front ARB last year (the bushes went) so had the vRS front ARB put on then.

I have certainly got a degree of roll even with the konis (standard springs, though) so presumably the jabba ARB will make it fairly flat in the corners!?

Yup should flatten it out a treat without affecting ride quality....

And busy? Why, of course ;):rofl:
