Anti Roll Bars
« on: July 23, 2006, 19:42:47 »
I discovered the other day, on a little jaunt, that my anti-roll bars are massivley restricting the articulation on my 90  - what are the good and bad points to removing them, as i want more articulation but am not prepared to massively sacrifice my road handling.

take them off....

drive it....

and if you don't like the increased body roll, put them back on.


Whether you have anti roll bars or not is more of a personal choice.


And before anyone starts mentioning MOT's... it will not fail an MOT if the antiroll bars are removed.

Well they certainly massively restrict articulation, so they must do something for stability.

I shall whip them off and have a play, back one looks easy, front one less so but t doesnt help it was caked in mud when i went looking for the mounts!!
