Interesting antiroll bar!!

Are the coilovers made by Leda? Not seen remote canister coilovers for the Mk3 and 4 Escorts before.

Cheers 4 the coments guys coilovers are buy leda and fukin expensive , anti roll bar is a must in my opinion tried it without 1 as i thought the coilovers would do all the work but when i put the arb on it made it 10 times better

Lovely car mate and very nice setup from Martin Ive driven Tony's car both on track and the road and the setup is very stable

ARB is this one I think - http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/catalog...oducts_id=7196

I might buy one for the front of the escos.
