    Going to move a pair of eibach ARBs (25/22?) from one car to another this weekend. Mate is selling his car and another mate wants the ARBs so going to swap.

    ARBs were put on about a year ago by the retailer so got no idea on fitting or instructions.

    Any parts that need to be renewed? Any advice on front and rear bars?

    If anyone got the instructions with their ARBs and could host them, that would be great.

    cheers

    (going to be busting his knuckles under a car again this weekend... )

    edit: both cars are 16valve so should be able to put the old front bar in the donor car

    There's been a few threads about ARB fitting recently - the search works on this new forum too [:D]

    The instructions you get with Eibachs are in German - not very helpful [xx(]

    Just hope when they fitted them they used a bit of coppa slip on the bolts, plus taking the orignal arb off the other car may induce swearing!

    May be better to swap the arb eye-bolts over as well.
