You may have to measure them Mark as I think the turbo cars have a slightly thicker ARB.

They are 21mm Luke. I ordered 21mm and 22mm just in case. Luckily my old ARB bushes still had the part number visible which identified them as 22mm

Better to measure the ARB with a digital vernier, that way you know what size it is.

I have a normal vernier Dave but these are the old factory bushes that I removed when I got front ARB and all brackets blasted from my 98 breaker car

I ordered 21 and 22 from FRF just in case

Ah, i get it now Mark - thought there was something i'd missed somewhere!

If memory serves i have a 22mm front ARB on mine, i'd like a 26mm but they seem few and far between so i may (if i ever get round to it) fit another 22mm with clamps to the original to give the same effect.

Even with adding the rear ARB, i still get a bit more body roll than i would like. Must invest in some Poly-Flex70 and remake some drop links for my Rover, it goes through drop links like there's no tomorrow!

You can double up the rear ARB Dave which would help. Either that or slow down in the corners

It's the front end that is rolling too much in corners now Mark, adding the rear ARB helped enormously but i can still feel the front trying to "lead the way" as it were. Most of the weight is up-front anyway, the back end is just a huge box really.

I've got a couple of rear ARB's Dave and a front ARB if you want to double up on them?

I will also be collecting another 940 turbo manual to break in a few weeks so I will have another pair.

Thanks Luke, can you measure the front one please? Meanwhile i'll measure my front one as well so i can start hunting down suitable clamp blocks.
If you could PM/email me a price too that would be great please!

If you find some rear clusters, I'd be interested.

Do we know if it was drop links or arb bushes I failed on?

Cheers,
