rear you`ll have to sort out the mounting for the middle 2 mounts, as i don`t think the mounting points will be on the beam, the front u wont have the 10mm bolt holes in the lower arm units. On lou`s i`ve put xr2i lower arm mounts on so if she gets new shocks as some point the a-r-b will just slot on, although u could nut+bolt this into the lower arm cradle, dunno about the shocks, may run slightly diff a-r-b, lou`s can just have the 2i/frst one bolted on.

ARB may go on but might interfere with Cat. 1600Si kit should bolt in place fine. ARB U-clamp 10mm bolt threads should be present in all lower arm carriers from 89-96 along with lower S-shaped (strut) brace crossmember thre :aviator: aded bolt holes.

Geoff speaks the truth. Go, go forth and suspensify...

You need one of the mk3.5 front anti roll bars - they come in two thicknesses and both are designed for CAT's and PAS. Choose the 1600si/RS/XR one it's the thickest one that was fitted to a mk3 due to the extra weight of the car.

Rear - you will need a complete beam.
