Default Thinking of running no rear ARB?

Ok, seems strange but I am getting a knocking noise from my Rear ARB which is the Turner motorsport one with adjustable drop links.....

The knocking is coming form the Bar hitting the two metal subframe mounts due to the car being low....about 638mm from ground to top of arch....

On track the car is a bit tail happy....so I was thinking of removing the rear ARB all together solving both the knocking noise and softening up the rear somewhat to try and induce less oversteer....

Any thoughts...or should I just do it and take a test drive....lol

Why not just put CSL ARBs on?

Im being serious here.

Not taking the piss out of your tyre choice, but what tyres are you running now.
What are your tyre pressures.
What tyre size are you running
What tyres have you used.
What suspension are you running.
Why are you running adjustable roll bar links.
What geo
What spring rates
What damper settings.

Lawsy stop trying to get my setup out of me! lol

Don t see what any of this has to do with knocking....also my rear end has always been loose in this car, with KW, Intrax and now Nitron...also with various tyres from road and track...

Adjustable droplinks are needed so as not to ruin the corner weight. So I cannot fit standard ARB's
