Adjustable blade ARB's

[Rusty]

If you're going for some super-stiff track springs then ARBs aren't going to do that much...

I looked into having some ARBs made and I just could not find a supplier over here...

Well looking at tarmac set up's on alot of cars they still use them so i am not going to argue and with M-sport etc.....

The rear build is very straight forward but has any one sorted somethinng for the front????

Heres a cozzy one from the WRC cars its as you would imagine straight forward.



Also the bar not being solid and only 2mm (depending on setting) wall thickness saves a truck load of weight the RS2 bar must be 15kg??

still on the todo list for me. I will probably go down the Sellholm route. Time nowdays is hard to find to experiment with these kind of things.

When I was designing a hollow bar, it was approx. half the weight but that was just the torsion section rather than the whole thing. More like 5kg but best off measuring one I guess.

They will allow for some tuning of the chassis but will have to be stiff to make much of a difference. Running a 28mm hollow bar would work well.

Well you could have 10 bars made up and ready to go they would cost very little to make and to fit would be a very quick change

[Rusty]

It's not the design, that the easy part, it's the material and any heat treatement that is required that's where the skill comes in. Could do steel tube with arms, I was looking into a modular system some time ago but again, couldn't find a supplier. Could just get it made and see how it does...

[terrybullwon]

Yeah I would not be building a one pice design that's for sure!

[Rusty]

I'll sort a design out and see where I get to, at least I have a welding fabricator now!

I think buying a selection of the part from touring car spares might be a cheaper option. I'll call the

£850 all in.

He won't brake down a kit

[Rusty]

I'd be aiming to make something suitable for about £200 + £50/extra bar. Depends how you do the bushes I guess.

Just to close my pursuit up.

I brought two kits from Sellholm Sweden.

There is no way you can build something as good as they and offer as much adjustment. I think if you want these Blades and you are serious about making a S2 handle you have to bite the bullet and buy the real deal!

[Jeffer]

I'm with James. Will order these soon to.

James, for future reference. Wich lengths did you choose and where do they go i.e. front / back

[terrybullwon]

320mm front and 280mm rear, as soon as my AST's are here I'll get them fitted !
