What thickness is recommended for ed30, should the thicker bar be on the back, or front or the same.  :laugh:

The one's I have are lightweight, but a little pricier than say Eibachs.

Unfortunately I cannot recommend them for a while as you may remember my front ARB bracket snapped on me going around a corner at 10mph. It has since been replaced and the replacements were "chunkier" than the originals.

Now they are fine and weigh 35 to 50% less than equivalent rated  ARB's.
