Alright chaps
Has anyone tried one of these rear anti-roll bar kits on their wedge, they've been referred to in a couple of threads now and I'm curious as to how much , where they bolt to and who sells them?

Have not heard of anyone offering them, I know Steve Heath made his own for the 'wedge from hell', I somehow doubt if he would have done it the hard way if there were standard parts available.

Cheers,
Peter Humphries (and a green V8S)

Too right! Biggest problem is actually calculating the dimensions you need for your car's suspension and how much adjustment you want. Get this wrong and the car will not handle. Anti-roll bars are a very good way of tuning the suspension but have a really dramatic effect.

I did it and have been running a prototype for about 8 months. The plan was/is for Tower View to make up a kit of bits that just bolt on but it will need some form of adjustment which is currently being worked on. Without it, each kit would have to be custom built for each car to get the right characteristics.

Cheers Steve
Any idea when these bits are likely to hit the streets?
