stiffer anti roll bars
Looking for stiffer arb's. I've got 22mm front and 12mm rear. I've found a 26 mm front, but want an 18mm rear. Any idea where I might get one?
I'm trying to sort out the handling on a recently aquired 4x4 (2.9, '89)
Having fitted some Koni's all round, there's a big improvement, but I still can't believe the roll connection between the steering wheel and the back end. All bushes seem ok. There's more roll on the whole car than I like, but most especially the back end, which has a mind of it's own. Bump steer? This thing handles worse than many a 60's british sports car with a rigid axle and leaf springs!
So next plans are to increase roll stiffness, and use poly's at all roll bar bushes. I don't want it lower, don't want it stiffer......just want it to behave itself!
Help and advice gratefully received,

I am going to piggy back on this one. I have a sierra that did not come with rear roll bar.... is there a place or a way to get one on there?
I upgraded the front from a later year 2.0 8v DOHC which helped a good deal. but it still needs one in the rear. I rhave been wanting to cut off the rollbar tabs from a scorpio or another sierra but no luck with em yet.
