  1. Sorry about the long post in advance. I have searched but cant find any solid answers. Basically i'm going to be hitting the 205 pretty hard over next few weeks and am looking to consolidate some information. Question number 1 : Is there..(im sure there was) anyone who is refurbing/customising tidy wishbones. Ie one that have replaceable balljoints, and aren't a s*ite design and going to snap/bend etc. How much am I looking at. I was looking at the shenpar ones which seem cheaper then everywhere else...but no reviews on them. Just a post saying they are similar to the PTS ones. But if I buy a pattern pair now and i send mine off to be done it may work out easier or cheaper for me. Question number 2 : Has anyone machined down 306 ARB and TBs to fit the 205. I'm on the standard STDT beam at the moment so it's truley pants. IIRC it's a 16mm bar so I was hoping to step it up to a 21mm or something. I'm too poor to buy a new one for 300+ each but I could probably get the bars cheap 2nd hand and the machining hopefully will only cost a fraction of the price. What size do the 306 arb an tbs come in? I know some people have the 106 items fitted but i'd rather a full length bar than welding in one side Also...anyone in south wales area who build beams...if you do part ex then do please get in touch Thanks
