How will a lower arm bar improve handling??
i found that the 4 point lower arm bar was a major improvement. it makes the car less floppy at the front lol.
Yeah two point are still good, connects the lower arm points to make a nice big structural square. Some are a close call when it comes to exhausts so bare in mind this when you consider buying one. I too think the Ultra Racing is by far the best, had one on demo no1 and 2.
Can promote a tad more under steer but benefits are worth it, it's a FWD anyway hardly surprising! Don't forget to check/replace the lower arm bushes as well while you are there, no point adding braces if the bushes are buggered as you'll only be going backwards.

ian - chuck us a pm with details dude.
i got ultra racing 4 point one - transformed the handling - felt alot more solid in corners.
only problem is that my exhaust catches it and rattles like a bag of spanners...needs adjusting but havent been bothered to do out yet, goign to try some heat wrap on it first to see if that quietens it down
I have the same problem with the UR one hitting the exhaust, so I took it off I'm planning to putting a whiteline ALK on so hopefully I get that extra 1cm to give me enough clearance and solve the problem ...
cheers for your advice. whye you think the ultra one is best? just a peice of metal? was going for a zisco one... and any pics of them fited ??
as far as i know the alk wont make any difference to the lower arm bar hitting the exhaust??
i think 99% of exhausts hit the lower arm bar.
although after i fitted TRD engine mounts, i found it no longer does this
Good man Gryzor, IMO the best one out there as it's the same price as the two points from the likes of Cusco and nearly 3 x the material. Just trickier with exhausts, we had a side exit so no worries there!

the exhaust hits the back bar on the UR 4 point ARB so with the ALK on it'll drop this by about 1cm and clear the exhaust.....thats the plan.
im going to heat wrap the exhaust and the bar - still gonna rattle, but hopefully will be alot quieter!!
Ill let you know how i get on.
