Double width ARB bushes and brackets

I'm not lowering the ARB. The bushes are shot so I'm taking the opportunity to upgrade to these at the same time.

How exactly? the bushes won't prevent the arb from moving nor should they so they can't prevent roll or dive.

The anti-dive kit lowers the arb to help negate the undesirable effects on steering geometry during heavy braking where dive occurs. Your problem appears to be roll which would be resolved by fitting either higher rate front springs or a thicker arb.

Not so much dive, but it does push the front tyre over into positive camber when you lean on the front end on full lock. These should help.

Thats gonna restrict bonnet opening even more, does your car suffer from a lot of dive?

Yep, basically replicating the escort anti-dive kit. I'll use a rubber bush in the centre bracket as they only sell the poky ones in pairs!
