1996 850 T5 AWD - Self tuned M4.4 ECU with COP`s, B5254T ( S60R internals in a 850 block ) ostrich 2.0 , VXR injectors @ 3.8 bar, K24 turbo with a 6+6 compressor wheel, 3.25" MAF, top mounted Dump Valve, RN Exhaust manifold, 3" downpipe with 200 cell cat, 2.75" Stainless exhaust, Brembo calipers, S60R brake discs, stainless RIP kit, 3" Throttle body,
i had them on mine,
just lets you adjust the load on the roll bar,
you dont really notice them to be honest,but i didnt have mine wound up high or anythin like that,just a slight load on them.
didnt have a problem with them,
only thing i did have was one of the threads that hold it to the strut wore out and the link dropped out and poked its head through my wheel,
damaged the wheel a bit but they where 2nd hand so i guess just worn more than i thought.....but to answer your question.......they are ok lol

Found some 10m/m steel bar today in the garage so I`ve made some adjustable drop links.
Once I`ve cut a 10m/m thread on each end of the bar I put a 10m/m rod end with a 10m/m nut.
The old drop links where removed and the new ones fitted using 10m/m stainless bolts and nyloc nuts.
First impressions, feels more positive on the corners.

Oblark - They look pretty good,
I've a set of QBM heavy duty ones, but not fitted them.
Slightly reduced flexibility for cornering, car will be less forgiving, stiffer anti roll bar would make the biggest difference.

am I missing something?
I thought ( probrably a mistake! lol), if I disconnect the droplinks the ARB just flops up and down?
so if you lenghten or shorten the droplinks,what gains are there????
your not putting any more or less load on the ARB,its only relative to the opposite side???
