Just a quick question really, I'm starting to polybush my GTI 180 and have the choice of 20mm arb bushes and 22mm arb bushes, does anyone know off the top of their head what the thickness of my arb is ?

I thought the front ARB on the 180 was 21mm. 1mm narrower than the rear.

Not worth changing the bushes anyway.

Because unless the old ones are knackered the difference will be immeasurable. They will make a microscopic difference to roll levels.
