Title: Flavia Coupe ARB rubbers Post by: BlueKSO on 02 October, 2019, 01:55:22 PM I’m just about to replace the front ARB/sway bar rubber mounts on my 63 Coupe, prior to it’s MOT.
I’d appreciate any comments or advice on any problems I’m likely to come up against. The job does look fairly straight forward......and how many times have I used that phrase!

It's surprisingly sound but some rubber parts including the ARB bushes reached the end of their life some whike back. May I ask where new ones can be found?
Thanks.

I looked at it before buying an exact replica via Richard Thorne. Mine was more messed with, ran less well, was more expensive and needed re-bushing throughout. Ah well. Still I love it.
You can get ARB bushes at good price from Colin Clamp of the Lancia Flavia Consortium. You may need to join the consortium first, you get access to lots of info and newsletters etc. http://www.flavia2000consortium.org.uk/home/ good luck, Mark Innes |
