Whiteline ARB

[mgoode180566]

I see the arb mounts to the axle beam then picks up from the damper mount of the hub. Surely there is no load between these points.

Can anyone explain how the arb functions ?

When fitting arb to other cars have always fixed the bar to the chassis. The as each wheel goes into bump then the load in trasferred through the bar. Much like the arb on the front.

Is it the case for the clio that the arb simply stops any flex side to side in the axle beam ?

The whole rear beam flexes when cornering. The ARB reduces the flex.

This there is a vid on here of how easy it is to bend the rear beam but can't find it.

the rear beam twists if you jack it on one side you can see this. the arb is made to reduce this under cornering
