Anti roll bar
Everyone seems to say removing this gives better articulation. Would this be the case on a Vitara? And what are the cons to doing this?
If it ticks over...leave it

Re: Anti roll bar
aha!
Still doesn't help with the anti roll bar query.
Do I really have to bow down before you?

Re: Anti roll bar
Jordi is just an scuk whore! But yes I would imagine removing the anti roll bar on your vit would also allow more articulation...whoever road handling will suffer

Re: Anti roll bar
It helped on my vit, but to be honest the front springs are so stiff it barely moves anyway. Hoping now I've fitted modified wish bones and taken the bend out of the spring it will help.
Built with ebay!!!
Re: Anti roll bar
The first time I tried it on my Vit it made it handle very badly with horrible understeer, after I fitted offset rims it went back to stock handling. Try it but be cautious until you're are confident in the handling.

Think I'll give it a go, like Twiss says it can always go back on.
