  • ARB's

    Can anyone provide me with a link or advice on how and where I reattach the ARB's. I got the surf with them detached and really don't like the ride..plus not got much chance of doing off roading, so it pointless for me.
    It wallows all over the place

    Picture would help a load

    Thanks for any help

    Have you got both off? Try replacing the front one and see how you go. The back one doesn't seem to make a lot of difference to the handling - unless your springs / shocks are shot I suppose.

    Where you need to reattach depends on whereabout you disconnected them really... I'm sure someone will be along with a link / pictures soon.

          Dumb question coming...I have got two bars ? is one for the fron and one for the back or should there be two at front and two at the back?

                      To forestall your question (And get this thread off-topic as quickly as possible) - the usual recommendation is FOUR, two at the front and two at the rear - preferably fitted one on each side .........

                      Life is too important to take seriously !

                        Hi Mark,
                        The thicker of the 2 ARB's, think it's smaller in size also, (if laid down beside one another) is the front one....
                        Obviously the the thinner of the two (bigger in size) is the rear...
                        Pics to follow
                        Hope all's going well Mark

                        There's always a payback .... Ya never see it Comin !!!!

                          If it's wallowing, it might be worth checking the condition of your shocks too. ARBs are more for..........forget it, just have a look at your shocks

                            Agree with Adam shocks might be fecked.

                              Yeah, the 'roll' is for body roll, not for roll over
