ANTI-ROLBAR

[samuria]

what do you guys think???? is it worth fitting a anti-rolbar to my van? when cornering quite fast there seems a lot of body roll. i have changed the oil in the front dampers to 40w. this did help.
your thoughts please

My view is - the Minor already understeers like a super tanker - adding an arb at the front makes it worse! To reduce understeer - put a little negative camber on the front suspension. If you really want arbs - fit to BOTH front and rear to retain the balance.

Front anti-roll bar and gas shocks certainly work well together on my 1275 Minor.

See what Jonathan jlh says on the other forum about them..

Arb front AND rear makes some sense - especially with some negative camber at the front and 7 leaf springs on the rear. If the car is giving shocks - hold tightly to the door frame as you get out - and then let go.......

Can you get rear arb's from anywhere? Never seen one..

Don't know if anyone sells a ready made kit - but not too difficult to adapt something I suppose.
