anti roll bars
skydivepaul - 23/7/06 at 09:51 PM

has anyone fitted anti roll bars front or rear to an indy. I have been looking at ways to improve the suspension out on the track and after seeing a photo of the car going round barn corner at cadwell (the zorst nearly touches the floor) i know now i either need to:

A: fit stiffer springs
B: fit front and rear anti roll bars
C: do both of the above

any comments and potential sources of anti roll bars welcome. i will also be calling MK in the morning for a bit of advice

Also interested in this, for the same reason as Paul. Not sure there's space for a front bar with a V8 though...

Any idea on price Zetec?

Hi do they sell just one antiroll bar for the front-rear or do they offer different spec ones to suit your spring poudage and individual set up as a one fits all dose not work . You need to get the car looked at and find out where things like rollcenters are before you can deside on a spec of bar to suit the aplication any thing else is just money down the drain.

Spoke to MK today. They just do one front bar, and don't promote it any more after a test session at Silverstone where they ran with and without it. Their tester (one of the Silverstone instructors) preferred the car without.

As you imply matt, rates are dependent on many other things - I'd guess an adjustable bar would cover more options. As it stands though, I intend to investigate spring rates before fitting bars. MK suggest running 400 front, 200 rear on a track car - I'm running 300 f 160 r on a sprint / hillclimb car.

Any further advice appreciated!
