Not sure what the differences between the two are other than the TBs twist to keep the wheels on the ground and ARB prevents roll, drive nice/faster/less roll with the bigger arbs than tbs?
It's a stronger connection between the rear wheels from what I gather, the top hairpin at Prescott hill climb is a good example, you see standard rear beam cars cock the inside wheel but the wheel drops down a long way in the arch, while in pictures of my car at the same place my inside wheel is off the floor but remains tucked up inside the arch.
I notice the difference going into large roundabouts the most, the back feels really planted and doesn't roll the weight to one side like you can feel on a standard car. Not as easy to provoke the classic 306 lift off oversteer, but if you push past its limit it'll let go big time lol
