Hate to say I got slightly stung with the rear ARB too! (my own fault as I should have looked into it more and not just taken his word for something!)

I was after the rear arb, exhaust and something else I'm sure and messed me about. Hope he never sold you a faulty item.

I bought the itg filter and heico springs and apart from taking slightly longer than expected to arrive the items were fine, this is an old post though so im assuming he sold the car with the exhaust on as he said he was doing.

What exactly was wrong with the arb?? All fitted to mine perfect so the only issue would be is with your car or knowledge if you can't get it to fit? It's a simple bolt on/off job... All bushes and mounts supplied with the arb.

As for the exhaust it's still on the car and I haven't sold the car yet. The exhaust will come up for sale when it's off the car as I've said in the past. The car is still being used so haven't any need to take it off yet.

Pm'd you james

Where did you get the springs and exhaust from?

Thanks for the reply, but I am more than capable of replacing an anti-roll bar. I was referring to when I enquired if the drop links came with it - stupidly I didn't check fitments as these ARE required due to the design. Normal ones are angled like so...

However the ones required for the IPD ARB are a different design, as you can see from the below, the standard ones wouldn't work

I enquired with IPD about using the naff Ford straight drop links, but they said as much as they would possibly fit, they partly defeat the object of a stiffer rear setup. Anyway, new parts ordered from IPD (at great expense) and as I said, I should have checked fitment before buying just the bar from you. All sorted and fitted now and feels much better!

The HEICO exhaust is now off the car. I will get pictures in better light. It a cat back system and comes with all hangers, clamps and tuber hangers. Everything will be there to bolt on.

Now from inspection I believe this will fit the D5 models too.

For those with the 2.0D engine I've also got the rear bumper valence from a D5 model with the twin exit in the bumper. This is also for sale for those who may need it.

Everything is in very good condition.
