The 1" front and 7/8" rear are installed and it went in smoothly w/o any issue.:wink: WHEW! after 6 months of waiting, we can finally shake this down and hope nothing breaks.
The changes we made from Alpha to Beta worked well:smile:. Nothing is binding/interfering and all the adjustments can be done w/ the wheels on the car at about 2-3 min. each corner at the track. The front adjustment accessibility is tight but very doable. The key installation tip is to preset the overall rod end heights and make sure each rod end has at least 4 full-turn threads into the turnbuckle. The install is much easier then the one piece OEM style ARB by far. One of the great side features of this set up is you do corner balancing, you can tune each corner individually with finer increments by turning the turn-buckle:wink: to get the balance perfect.
The 7/8" front Comptech ARB we removed from the car was in full stiff but the rod ends were not high quality nor at an ideal angle thus bent due to binding and incorrect geometry. We wished we could fit a larger dia bar in the front but its just not possible w/o major surgery.
Below is the front & rear install and more detail pix will follow after trackday this wkend.
