Default Heavy duty mounts needed for new ARB?

I've just got a whiteline 22mm adjustable ARB with new steel droplinks - however from looking at one of the fitting guides on a thread on here I noticed that the guy had new heavy duty mounts for attaching the ARB to the car - are these needed or will the original ones that are on the current car (MY01 wagon) still work with the new ARB?

Thanks
Richard.

The Original Ones will still work & i believe the newage were more beefy than the classic, You could always go for the solid to stiffen things up further.
I would recommend David @ API i have just had a front & rear set of him, Cnc machined solid alloy with solid Bushes, No flex what so ever & at a very keen price, Made a big difference straight away.

they still work with the originals the ones in the whiteline pics are just an heavy duty up grade. i bought these at the same time as arb and drop links and yes the up grades are better but looking at originals i'd say they'd have no problems handling the 22mm arb for everyday use.
