    Hi all

    I've bought a Eibach arb kit for my mk2 golf 16v but wondering what drop links I need to use? I'm thinking standard ones will be to small in diameter if the eibach bar is thicker? Can anyone tell me which ones would be suitable.

    Thanks

    Thanks RJ , I've ordered some powerflex bushes which are matched for the eibach bar.

    Lincs.
    Rear one fits in about 15 mins max, front one, nahhhhh.

    if you're really unlucky like me one of the front subframe bolts snapped off in the chassis . :(

    I've fitted my Neuspeed arb's twice, a lot easier with subframe out of the car!.

    Why they designed it like they did is beyond me..
