Arms
I need to change the arms on my car, and was looking for some advice, I have searched but cant find the answer to the
question I have.
The car has been dropped on KW springs and is great, but there is wear on the inner shoulders of the front tyres. Will a full set of new arms cure this or do
I need adjustable top arms??

Re: Arms
Have you had the wheels aligned since lowering it? You might find that your wheels might need some adjustments but are still in tolerance. However, if you find that the front camber is too far out then you need adjustable top arms as the OEM arms don't allow you to adjust camber on the front axle.
Re: Arms
mine was lowered on kw springs and never had a problem is it really low?
Re: Arms
Mike, the springs were fitted by a Tuner in the Northwest who made a mess of them, I then had to take it to MRC for a remap and they correctly adjusted the springs for me and carried out an alignment. At the time they mentioned the arms would need replacing in the future and in the last few months I've noticed the front end is wishy washy.
Rick, its not really low in my opinion, MRC adjusted the springs to the correct height. I'm away at the moment but when I'm home Il throw up some pics. I think I will go with
the 034 kit and see how it holds up.

Re: Arms
I have this setup and went for Stern Adjustable Top arms that MRC aligned and fitted. I've read they’re better quality than the 034 and serviceable with replaceable bushings.

Re: Arms
Its worth giving Ben a ring @MRC - this is where I sourced mine from. Otherwise a quick Google shows JHM or Pure Motorsport sell these online.#1Rs4 wrote:Where are you chaps getting the stern arm please ?

You can buy replacement bushes for the 034 Motorsport ones as well.
Re: Arms
Nice one. They do look a bit tight for access. It won't be me in there thoughRIV wrote:I've got them on mine, they are fine! Just take a little longer to set up.Postby gt2 » Wed Jul 22, 2015 1:18 am
