no reason not to drive it, even if the ARB link broke apart it would upset the handling and make some noise but at normal speeds be perfectly safe

anti roll bar links arent difficult to fit, and are cheap to buy .... but its not uncommon for an MOT test to find broken links so we've probably all used the car with them broken at one time or another! [img]/smile.gif[/img]

cheers for replys.i have been driving it all day but the thing is,nothing is broke its had all new tie rod things and lower wish bones the thing is it looks as if the roll bar is slipping back out of the rubber (towards engine). there is only about 10mm in the rubber bit, just wondered what would happen if it came out.
cheers
