ANTISWAY BAR SHIMS AND WASHERS pt.II
BIG FAILURE!!!

1-purchased the wrong antisway-bar poly bushings.
i always thought i had the 24mm one, 'cause the spare one i pulled down from a mate car is a 24.
but the car under my ass is wearing a 28mm thick antisway-bar.




half full glass: can't say how it comes, i have a 28mm bar on my 1.8cvh sapph...


2-did wrong measurement, so i had wrong laser cut...
(i took down them draftings. don't wanna people attemping to do wrong things because of my mistakes)




i opened them holes up till this measurement checks 2-2.5mm on both sides:




withstanding this measurement (7mm),...




...i just need one of these 1mm shims to keep the standard compression on the bushings (just a little more compression).




the assembly would be this:




3-tried anything, but i've just managed to put on just one 2mm thick washer per tca.




the antilock nut rubber lip grips on the 28mm antisway-bar, even with 3x2mm washers (total 6mm spacer). it ain't the problem...
the real issue was pulling everything in centre, as you can see by the very antisway-bar, (there is some left-to-right difference).






also the tca-to-crossmember bushings would work too much off-centre, damaging themselves in short time, if i had left the shims and washers on...





this mod would be a whole a lot more comfy, if i had a couple of adjustable tca... maybe in the next expenses.

at the end i gave up. no shims on, just 2mm washer per tca on the antisway.
it's a pity, 'cause i would've gained a lot of caster and steer turning back.
this how she looks with 5mm shims and 5mm washers per each tca...




haven't gave up at all, i'll give it a second chance in the next future.
i just have other things to focus on at this time...
