Anti-roll Bar

66Lover · Apr 28th, 2017, 23:28

Hi.

Rear anti roll bar wanted for my 1992 SE which is not seem to have one (Nivomats presumably long since binned). Its fitted with a front anti roll bar although not sure what thickness.

A pair of matched GLT bars would be awesome.

Thanks,
Graham

Nobody got a rear anti roll bar hiding in a shed somewhere?

Bump. Still looking for a rear sway bar. Any thickness is an improvement over nothing I guess.

Me too, round the Sheffield area.

I suspect they're very rare, not many fitted as new and people wanting them as Nivomat's wear out and are replaced by standard shockers.

Still on lookout for any rear ARB. Anything an improvement over nothing.

Nivos are used with softer springs than standard. If Nivos are replaced by a normal shock the rear end will be too soft for anything over a driver and passenger with nothing in the back. This maybe the reason you think you need a rear ARB. Fitting the harder standard springs or the heavy duty ones may well mean that you won't feel the need for the rear ARB.

Cars with nivos didnt have an ARB. All 240s without Nivos did have them so you need an ARB to bin them anyway. Well you dont NEED it but it'll handle ike utter dog crap without on.

GLT arb's are thicker than non-GLT ones.
