Hi folks, i have got a set of autotech ARB's waiting to go on my car, is it ok to fit them when the car has got OEM suspension on? i know they stop body roll but can they only withstand so much without twisting/breaking, reason i ask is i was going to fit the ARB's when the subframe is off to do the diff done but wont have my bilsteins until after this is done, will it be the ARB's ok until i get time to fit the coilovers? :headhurt:

cheers, owen

Yeah i would of thought so, although you'll be paying for alignment twice. We want a review when they're on aswell by the way and a review on the coillies and the diff :p.

You will get a review from someone else first ;)

Regarding alignment, I have never had it done on my car with OEM/Pro Kit/Sportline/OEM/Eibach Pro Street S Coilovers and tyre wear has always been even although I probably get it done will once all the kit is on.
