Default Front off side ARB link broken

Hi all,

The photo is out of focus, but you can see what has happened.

Question is, is there any problem to drive it like this, i can't get to a garage for a couple of days.

i had this a few months back, https://www.scoobynet.com/general-te...lp-please.html

https://www.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-...can-fixed.html

ended up buying these Subaru Impreza 00 to 07 Front Antiroll Bar Drop Links Alloy Arms and fitted them myself, can't be a hard job if i did it

but to answer your question, yes it can be driven, just take it very easy, especially on turns in the direction of the broken link. drives like a circus clown car with wonky wheels

Thanks Hoskib, my searching was admittedly brief, but that's put me in the right direction.

Did you get any noises while the link was off?

It was while investigating a graunching noise that i found the broken link.

no worries

i can't remember having any noises, i only spotted it changing my oil. the car had felt a bit odd for about a week, whether this was the link failing or not i don't know.

if for some reason you can't get hold of any, a friendly scoobynetter sent me some 2nd hand ones. i fitted the new ones from importcarparts so i've still got these in the garage. i can send them out to you if it gets you out of a hole?

PM me if you need them
