maybe make this a sticky.

they have stopped making the 21mm anti roll bar for a lot of models.

so unless you buy an IPD kit or a repair kit, that only lasted 4500miles for me. then your stuck.

Stopped making them years ago. The repair kits work perfectly and last for perfectly acceptable amounts of time if installed correctly. Wearing out in 4.5k miles is indicative of incorrect installation.

my bar seems quite rusty so maybe this was the cause?

I know they still had some until last year as a fellow T5R owner had his replaced at volvo.
