Up-rated front anti roll bar.

[pink_floyd]

Has anyone fitted a stiffer Front Anti Roll bar to the chim to reduce the roll or do people find the standard one O.K.

I don't think anyone does one off the shelf, however I'm told, but yet to confirm this, that one of a Tuscan road car will fit and its much bigger diameter (which obviously means nothing if its made of out softer material than the original, but I'm told it isn't)

Have you fitted the rose jointed drop links ? I bought the all round set from Steve Heath and it made a massive difference to the ARB behaviour. It works now !

Rose jointed drop links & poly bushing for the ARB make quite a difference IMHO.

Have you checked the rest of your running gear & Geo - ARB will not help if the rest is all floppy / badly setup...

I have a stiffer front bar on mine, with SHPub drop links and solid chassis mounts. Good news; it made an absolutely huge difference to the cornering. Gobsmackingly so. Bad news; it all had to be made to measure and, er, wasn't cheap. I had it done by Moore Racing (don't call until the autumn - he's a tad busy with his British GT Viper at the moment!)

Interesting this threads cropped up. I've just renewed front lower wishbones and bushes, fitted the steve heath droplinks and polybushed the ARB.

As I was putting it all back together , I started thiking about a thicker ARB.

For those brave souls who are handy with a blow torch and have a reasonable understanding of metallurgy and an anvil, Fred Puhn in his book 'How to make your car handle' tells you how to mak an ARB from scratch.

What car is the Front anti roll bar from.
