Fitting rear ARB

[Adam318i]

Well ive just bought a rear anti-roll bar, and although it looks pretty straight forward to fit just want to make sure.

There looks like 4 places it attaches, one on each end of the bar and two along the flat straight bit.

Is it just a case of of lining these up and bolting it in?

Cheers, Adam

Have you got the mounts as well as drum trailing arms do not have them? Unless you have converted to discs that is....



That how it should fit, nowhere near the rear axle carrier like me and Jhonno thought.....[/list]

Hmm - my 320i has drums at back (until I get round 2 fitting my rear disc setup - lol!) and it defo has mounts for rear ARB - in fact, I.ve fitted one!

[Gwynleym10]

I thought 320i had rear ARB anyway, perhaps somebody removed it! My 318i def did have the fittings,

[Adam318i]

Gwynley, are these the mounts you speek of?

If they are, then yes they are attached to the ends of the bar.

Number 10/11 in this one, not sure if there is a hole for it to go in 316/318 trailing arms

[Adam318i]

oh bugger, i dont have any of those bolt/brackets.

I swear someone on here the other day fitted a rear ARB to there 318i and said it was an easy job, he said nothing about having 320/325 rear trailing arms.

I don't think the brakets cost a lot from the dealer, couple of Ԛ£, its just the fact that you need holes in the trailing arm to fit them. Yours may have these holes, I can't say i looked particulary carefully as I'm binning them for discs one....
