Default front ARB replacement without removing gear linkages?

I'm just struggling to get my ITR front arb on without completely removing my gear linkages. The bitch pin is looking nasty at best....

Can it be done or should i start taking the linkages off?

My Integra Type R front sway bar, sorry, uk slang is Anti-roll bar, forgot about that!

I've given up realising i'll have to remove the gear linkage, i'll order a new spring pin and fit it later in the week instead.

its not that hard, and you shouldn't need a new pin either. actually remove the whole thing just where it mounts to tranny, and the stabilizer too

isnt it common sense to just unbolt the linkage from the shifter side? or is there no room up front?

I'm a bit lost as to how you remove it without removing the spring pin? Do you mean removing the bolt which attach's the linkage to the gear lever? Only reason i didn't unbolt the linkages from the shifter is, my jack is rubbish so i can't get the car high enough to access the shifter. And don't have access to a lift.

Might give it a bit of a run tomorrow to get a back to back comparison of the different front ARB's.

theres only 2 bolts you have to take out to drop the linkage from the shifter side, its the 2 bolts that go directly into the unibody
