As part of my chassis refurb, I'll be doing all the bushes. Im keeping the main ones standard, but wondering about poly bushes for the anti-roll bars. Logic being that their probably stilled allowing the bar to work more independently.

Anyone any experience of them? Is the reality that I'll notice ZERO difference???

....i bought a set of Rainsports this summer and a set of Ben Langs Bilsteins, which the suspension I'll fit during the chassis refurb. I definately agree about the tyres, although my old Toyo's where rather OLD!

Hi Phazed, I did wonder about the anti roll bars. How difference do you think they made and how much thicker did you go? I can seem to find any difinative judgement of upgrading for a predominantly road car. I seem to remember Ben Lang suggesting not making the car too stiff.


I'm concentrating on making my chim the best possible road car - with the occasional track and maybe hill climb in mind.

Interesting....i can't remember the spring tates on the Tuscon s set up I've got, just know their lower than 450/400, but higher than the standard originals.
I thought chim roll bars 22mm front and 19mm at the back from the factory though.

Great. I think I'll give the poly ones a go as their not too dear. I was just curious as to any views on them and I'll stick with the std bars for now. Gives me time to get a feel for my new suspension.....when I finally get are to it all!
