Pete,
I've just had fitted larger front and rear ARB's and heavy duty rear mounts fitted, ALK and had the bump steer done.
I'm about to fit solid rear drop links.
In the dry the car is great
but tends to understeer a fair bit in the wet, apparently a characteristic of the mods as the front is now less forgiving.
Has anyone else had the same experience

Yes...
Already had ALK, Bumpsteer, Drop links, Eibachs etc.
Uprated rear ARB only - Great
Then uprated front too - Cr@p
- Understeered all over the place esp in the wet or twisties - only got benefit on high speed corners in the dry.
Took Front ARB off and went back to standard - much better
Set rear to tightest setting - even better.
At the end of the day - this setup suits my driving style (bad
) and that's what counts
Rich.

Rich,
When you take the uprated front ARB off, do you need to have the geometry reset, or am I right in saying that it does'nt affect the geometry settings
