anti roll bar

[leo23]

just a quickie,do i really need jack the beast up to remove the front anti roll bar and drop links??

No - but it will be a lot easier - ramps are best if you've got them, its easier to work on with the wheels in their natural state, so theres no tension on the bar/links. Whatever you do make sure you treat both sides equally - ie don't jack up each side in turn to undo it, that will put the bar under a lot of tension which will mean it springs out when you release it.


Are you just replacing the links/rubbers or removing the bar all together?

replacing links and putting all singing and dancing bushes on them,but its a right.....to get to the top bolts and because im a lucky boy they are seized too!!!!

Had to cut mine off with a disc cutter so you are not the only lucky boy. :x

arb bushes

did mine at the weekend as i had drop links with no bushes,i just cut them off as they were all seized and learnt the hard way putting them back on by jacking up one side at a time.in the end i put the wheels back on and found it so much easier to line up the bolts.
