Are you after an axle for a 16v?

Yes mate. Not able to PM at moment as new member. Want to re-furb my rear beam but obv easier to get another and swap it- but want to be sure its the specific ZX 16v one!


RE: Torsion Bars/ARBs - Sizes and Sources - welshpug - 04-07-2014

That will be tricky, however I might know of some...

Ive had bad experience with IM axles...never did get my partial refund so will happily bad mouth them !!

Seen these torsion bars on evilbay what's the chances they are actually 24mm..?


RE: Torsion Bars/ARBs - Sizes and Sources - welshpug - 21-09-2014

That's an ARB not a torsion bar.

RE: Torsion Bars/ARBs - Sizes and Sources - eyalam - 21-10-2014

Hi,
I own a citroen ZX volcane 1994.
I will be visiting the UK in a few weeks from now
looking for a shop to buy used/new(?) TB 21mm and ARB 24mm.
Can anyone suggest where I can buy these/order online?

I will be in the area of Hatfield.

thx Eyal


RE: Torsion Bars/ARBs - Sizes and Sources - Deutz_1 - 28-03-2015

Just out of curiosity what size are tb's and arb's in a phase 1 2.0 xsi?


RE: Torsion Bars/ARBs - Sizes and Sources - welshpug - 28-03-2015

same as a gti6.


RE: Torsion Bars/ARBs - Sizes and Sources - Deutz_1 - 28-03-2015

Thanks, wasnt sure if the 8v engines had different tb/arb than the 16v models


RE: Torsion Bars/ARBs - Sizes and Sources - insomaniac45 - 26-10-2015

ok, so with many thanks to Jonny for letting me know how tired my car is, it is getting time to sort out the handling stuff Smile

i would like to stiffen the cabby just a little so it doesn't wallow into corners like a bus. how can i do this on the rear beam? front end is obv a different thread, and i have an idea of what to do there. but this is the first car i have ever had with an ARB. they have all been either solid beams, or leafers.


RE: Torsion Bars/ARBs - Sizes and Sources - Quietone - 26-02-2019

hi all are the arb n tb in a phase 3 xsi same as gti6 as above i am unsure thanks
