Front and rear arb setup

[rynaqui]

What setup would be optimal front and rear? Is rs2 farb 28mm and whiteline rarb 18mm a good setup? Let me know what you guys recommend

rs2 farb 28mm and whiteline rarb 18mm

^^ I have this setup and love it.

Whiteline with stock FARB was good also.

RS2 FARB without a whileline or equivalent RARB would be a very bad idea.

[rynaqui]

That's settled then

I've found an RS2 FARB on here, where should I get the whiteline RARB from?

Also, is there anything that needs doing when installing them? My mechanics are fairly capable so it shouldn't be a problem I think, but we don't like surprises

Cheers

Are these drop-links suitable for RS2 farb? Can anyone guide me with what else I may need please (brackets and such)

Also would the whiteline rarb need anything extra besides the bar? Cheers

I'm not a coupe person so I don't know bud but when you do them get them poly bushed too. My car has rs2 f and r bars and I want to poly bush the whole lot next to help a bit more

A new whiteline rear comes with a fitting kit which includes bushes and brackets, you just need longer bolts and could replace the drop links but isn't essential.

The RS2 front will need RS2 bushes to fit, I can't remember if the brackets are the same so would check and new RS2 or ABY drop links would be an idea but again not essential.

According to ETKA the ARB bush clamps are the same for an RS2 and a coupe.

Can anyone guide me on the front? As I don't know what this all means

You need to buy some 28mm Superflex mounts:

So is that all that's needed then?

I appreciate it Alex!

Is replacing the drop links optional?

Cheers everyone

Hi Guys,

Maybe a touch off topic but does anyone know if this set-up can bolt onto B3 90Q 20v subframes?

Cheers

[rynaqui]

Not sure myself but no worries about off topic

I'm planning on getting RS2 front and rear drop links while I'm at it, might as well do it all right..

I'm not sure but you probably don't want RS2 rear drop links on a coupe. I'd stick with coupe rear drop links.

all the small chassi areall the same... from vw passat in 1975-76, and audi 80/90/s2/rs2... minor detal suffer.. like teh wishbone and drivetrain... so if you car are a r5 or v6 verson, the mostli parts will go in....the 4 pot verson( petrol) does hav the engine mount on the subframe, but some diesel verson( 89-) doesnt, so then the front and rear arb's goes in....
for the vw 32b syncro cars; use the thicker rear arb for paasat 35i (20 or 25mm) or the rear arb from vw golf syncro (18,5mm)
in front from audi 90 gt (26mm) or 20v... or from rs2 (28mm)

I'm not sure but you probably don't want RS2 rear drop links on a coupe. I'd stick with coupe rear drop links.

Is there a particular reason why? Too stiff? Is it safe to keep the S2 drop links if they are a bit on the old side with the whiteline rarb? I'm guessing they've never been replaced..

So far have ordered the 28mm superflex mounts for upfront, front RS2 drop links, am still deciding on where to purchase, possibly from quattro corner if Pete has available. RS2 FARB I'm getting from someone on the forum
