So now your geo will be out.

Unless they loosened the non-adjuster bolts, and I don't see why they would.

I could go explain the ins and outs as to why...but it's basically because they will be abnormally stressed if you don't, and Chris at CG says so too

The geo won't be out after reconnecting them...I've had a fair few geo sheets to prove otherwise

you only disconnect usually for corner weighting or ride height setting, ARB links being connected should have no effect on GEO
as you said it doesn't alter after reconnecting them so they can't be stressed, this would only happen if you had a bent bar or differing ride heights side to side

Ah yes...you are right (as was everyone else). Every time I've been to Chris, I've had the corner weighting and ride height altered.

Sorry for the crap advice chaps.

That makes more sense.

I prefer to shove a lemon up its exhaust when doing the geo. Only 'cause I like doing it.
