ARB's

[Shalershasker]

Checked the torque on my spacers yesterday and noticed that the arb links are looking somewhat the worse for wear, so, I know I can probably remove them altogether but since they are cheap I'm happy at the moment to simply replace them. My question is if i undo the bolts for it, is something going to fly up and hit me in the face so to speak, how much pressure are these things under or is it really simply a case of unbolt the old one and bolt in a new one?

Shouldn't be under any tension on level ground.

Have you had your stickers then John?

Looking forward to my'n.

Might have to give the ARB mod a go myself, how much does it impact on daily driving as my'n does plenty of that?

comeing green laning tonight then neal or is it really bad?

[Shalershasker]

Don't think so mate, it's not right and I'm back at work after tonight so it's going to have to wait till next week to sort it, as said there's no visible damage but there's definately something wrong there, could just have thrown the tracking out for all I know but can't take the risk if it is something more drastic. Got to get it sorted soon as I'm itching to get it muddy + need to know exactly what it's capabilities are for a future holiday jaunt.

[Shalershasker]

You never know, after getting it out in a bit more than just a few fields here and there, I'll probably take the arb's off anyway lol.

BTW to anyone else reading this the problem is not my arb's, there just a bit worn out, I hit a rock thrown up by an artic which has caused a few issues.
