Default Fitting a rear anti-roll bar

I have a different arb for the rear, altho looks pretty much the same as the one on there already i take it it's stiffer/made out of different material. the diameter is the same and its not adjustable.

going to fit it soon, can anyone give a brief description of the process ? I have some bushes as well to go with it

cheers

You sure it's the same diameter ? It will likely only be about 2mm bigger than stock. Are the arms the same length as the standard one ? If it really is the same exact diameter and the arms are all the same length it's not worth fitting, it'll still be steel and all different grades and types of steel have the same stiffness (or modulus to use the technical term - this is not the same as strength however - different steels have different strengths) so it'd work just the same. About the only thing that is stiffer than steel size for size is carbon fibre, and you'd know if the new ARB was carbon.
