Its stiffer than 2wd Saff, and 4wd Saff.
All anyone will do with an adjustable one is stiffen it up, possibly even further
Escos one is cheap and straight forward to do. And looks standard.

If you want it even stiffer you can change the standard drop links with the rubbers bushes in there for drop links using rose joints. I used that on my 4x4 sapph with a 21 mm arb from a Scorpio 24v. But it made it a bit too stiff in combination with the rest of the setup I had so I changed it for a 20 mm from a standard Scorpio. But I think the 21 mm will go back on in a while.

I have my ARB's set on full soft but the plan is to soften the springs and then stiffen the ARB's a bit but I am hoping to get a pro to set mine up for road use.

I have a 4x4 standard ARB if anyone wants it.

Thanks for the offer. It would just be to be able to swap to a thicker size, but that 1 mm extra is not worth 150 pound to me.
