Hi just a general wondering really,

I ordered one of Eibachs anti roll bar kits for my 20vt on the 1st september last year around the time of the group buy and I was baring in mind that there would be a delay on deliveries as they are apparently moving factory.

Anyway I still haven't recieved mine and everytime I phone they say they still haven't started production again yet.

Has anyone else got these on order/ recieved yours or have you sucsessfully scourced them from elsewhere????

I'm starting to get wound up as I want to get my project started so it's ready for the summer (if we get one) rolleyes

The last Eibach ARB group buy took about 18 months from order to delivery.

I just phoned Eibach uk and they confirmed that the "moving factory" is a load of bollox, its due to masserati, lotus etc pushing for deadlines on the stuff for their cars.

He gave me a eta of April, though I'l believe it when I see it.
I was told november then january then march and now april confused

I would cancel my order and go Whiteline / Dedra - that is extremely poor service.

Hmm I may have to.

What's the Dedra one I can't find any info on that?

I ideally want front and rear and as I understand whiteline only do a rear?

the Dedra is the front ARB from a Lancia Dedra, apparently works really well with the Whiteline rear ARB.

Hope so anyway because I've got both sitting in my garage wink

I can vouch for the Whiteline 22mm Rear ARB, gives a nice firm GT turn in with understeer if you try your luck a little too far smile

Ah, might be the way forward.
Does it require any modification to fit or is a bolt straight on jobby?

Yes - the exhaust heatshield has to be cut back - its pretty obvious once the Dedra ARB is placed next to the standard one - other than that, its a straight bolt-on mod
