Default how can ARB drop links be like this?

ok, had a knocking for a week or so from front, assumed it was drop links as one of them was at a steeper angle that the other.

got the whiltelines i ordered tonight, just compared them by eye side by side, and when i got under the car, the passenger side drop link was pretty much prefectly verticle, where as the noisey drivers one was at a rite angle! almost horizontal!

it seems the whole ARB has moved over, can this be? if i fit the whitelines will it just happen again?

from what it looks like, doesnt look like the drivers whiteline adjustable ARB drop link will even go on, as the gap is huge, but passengher side doesnt look a problem.

can i move the ARB back over? has anyone heard of this or similar.

and out of interest what size are oem ARB's on a 95 impreza WRX jdm import? might be able to buy a new one to replace

just make shore the car is sat on its wheels[blocks or ramps] and the rollbar is centralized before you tighten up the clamps on the rollbar bushes ,should be fine .
mine was over one side before i fitted whiteline rollbar's and now its fine

As above.

Think the roll bars on your year model were 20mm front / 22 mm rear ... mine were I think on a MY95 wagon JDM.

If it happens again, change your roll bar bushes
