Buy a 22mm front bar new and cut it down, it'll work a treat, stronger than the whiteline. Should cost about £100 including clips and poly bushes.Cheers'en, AndyC

Could you explain that a bit more please?Buy a 22mm front bar new and cut it down, it'll work a treat, stronger than the whiteline. Should cost about £100 including clips and poly bushes.
Do you just shorten "arms" of the the bar and drill another hole for the drop link bolt?Current-2004 Impreza PPP wagon

Read the rather extensive sticky in the suspension section, you can just bolt on a rear bar with the struts swapped left with right (I have a 25mm one) but I think it would be better to take a 22mm one and cut the arms down as this will prevent a couple of clearance issues that I've had over the years.Cheers'en, AndyC

I have read the sticky in the past, just didn't remember seeing a cut down bar completed, just the front to rear/side to side swap.Current-2004 Impreza PPP wagon

Andy do you just cut the arms off and drill new holes? Or is that not necessary?91 S2 coupé - RIP

Yeah, it's not been completed but it should work just fine. A little work with an angle grinder and a drill should see it spot on. Or use the same method Error has with the pre face-lift (B3) FARB.Cheers'en, AndyC

Will the amount the arms will be shortened have a big effect on leverage?Current-2004 Impreza PPP wagon

Yes it will, but ARB's dont do that much transferring anyway.
I have the stats somewhere and its surprisingly low, thats why when upgraded or modified they make sure a big difference.91 S2 coupé - RIP

Yeah, lower leverage makes it stiffer again, hence why going for the 22mm is a good starting point. The levers front to rear are about 1.5 times. It should act as the equivalent to a 24mm normal FARB when cut down, sorts out the understeer a treat
