Title: Whiteline arb's moved off centre
Post by: jamfe355 on November 3, 2020, 17:06
Hi all,

My Whiteline arb's have moved off centre, it seems to be reasonably common on these.  I will purchase some of these to stop this.

 Question is.... do you think the Yellow poly bushes that came with the bars are still OK after 30,000 miles or have other members replaced theirs around this age/mileage?

I can't answer your question through experience, but recently bought a Whiteline for future fitting.
I've since seen a topic discussing the Whiteline & a new buyer was told to chuck the included bushes & fit Superpro instead.

I've also heard the same as Gaz so bought Superpro for when mine arrive - You can also buy an additional "thing" from them to stop this happening - it's essentially a collar that clamps to the bar at the sides of the mount

I've not bought these, mainly because I forgot so will probably make some!
