That is because they are the same, it is the ball joint holes that are different

It's just the ball joint holes that are different iirc.

It's the outer ARB bushes that change, I'm sure they will ask what car you have prior to sending, they won't see you wrong.

all 172/182 use 23mm outers, k-tec will sell you the 22mm ones and tell you they fit "because we've sold hundreds of those and never had a problem" had a right good row with a customer about it LOL! WHY THE f**k DO THEY MAKE 23MM BUSHES THEN, JUST FOR FUN?

There's loads of company's selling different dia bushes, what your saying there is all ARB's are the same from ph1 172 right threw to Trophy?

Hmm this is odd. I have the 22mm Outers on my 182 and they fit fine. Well Mike Woodford fitted them and didn't report a problem.

Wondering now whether it even makes a difference.. Will check with Mike when I speak to him next about how mine were.

the ony possible change over point is on possibly phs1 to phs2, but i think they're the same, maybe wrong!

the 22mm ones fit on, but when the arm is 23mm why would you fit smaller bush LOL!

You see more clio's than you have hot dinners so if you've never had a problem fitting them then you should be fine. 1mm is such a small difference in a bush anyway.

They didn't get in touch to ask what size I was after but it's the 23mm that have turned up so all is fine.
