Thread: Superior Engineering Superflex arms for Rovers.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the reply Grant

Did you use 2 washers per bush?

The washers I got if I use one per bush it will still be a loose fit,but if I use both I'll have to bend the diff brackets.

Funny how I was supplied 6 washers.

I used 2 washers per bush and they end up being a very tight fit,I used a small punch to knock the second washer into place,not sure what thickness the washers are that are supplied,as I went and bought some washers to fit mine,as it was sort of a prototype fitment.And as Grant said,you need the washer on the inside of the drivers side arm to give a little more clearance from the chassis.With washers either side everything is a nice tight fit in the front end.Possibly the brackets have been bent when the radius arm bolts have been done up previously,so a little persuasion won't hurt

Has anyone got any video of their rigs yet?

Not yet,but I am going out tomorrow,so hopefully get some then

gee its quiet around here, seems to be almost no interest in rover stuff at all. I thought i had the arms pretty good, or maybe there really is not the market for premium stuff? I am open to ideas, please give me a glimmer of hope before we scrap the project.....

They're certainly working well for us, which shows in the fact that we are limited by the 12" shocks in my car, and even Grimaces 14"'s seems to be fully extended!
We need some time to play with top shock mounts heights and extended bump stops to make the most of them.

We're heading to LCMP this weekend, so might try disconnecting a shock to find the limit of the flex!

Some more pics and videos on this site might help sell the merits to potential purchasers.

I watched Presto's set getting fitted and took pics on the ramp - sold me - I just need to get myself a set now

I think you would sell heaps if got exposure in the US and Uk esp. given fx rate good for them now. So qu is how to get profile over there.
