Default Rear ARB is awesome but....

every now and then I think it is rubbing on something when I turn right into corners/junctions, just wondered if anyone had noticed this?

No problems with the bar performance it is awesome and Skoda should be fitting these as standard now that the car feels more planted I'm looking at the next thing to upgrade, maybe brakes 312 jobbies or different pads....


Cheers

Des

No problems here but you can understand why VWRacing got H&R to make one for their Polo Racers

We have never had a problem like this before
You could check the bushes are greased up, other than that there isnt anything ealse that could touch.


I think you will find that the vw racing ones were done while we were competators in the championship, hence why they didnt want us making them!!!!

Des are you running coilovers? I've heared that on some coilies the adjustable spring platform protrudes through the chassis mount and fouls on the bar. If not i'm afraid I have no idea.

I think that is on the H&R coilovers, but when you have them the bar doesnt fit at all!!!

Okay I'll take a look. BTW the car is on standard suspension. To describe it the sound is similar to the moo'ing noise you get front the rear discs when reversing.
