Anti -Roll Bars...

<< < (3/4) > >>

Range Rover Blues:
Which is funny, 'cos with a 2" lift the rear one is a liabilty and I would have thought more likely to fail, it's down to understanding though and....

....no, I'll shut up.

Anyway, mine has 2 bars on the back and one on the front, it handles well on road (although the BFG MT have softened up now, ohh crikey :shock: ) but off-road it isn't them that limits my travel, it does reduce contact pressure on the drooping wheel though but then my car has 5 ARB altogether, 2 of them being air-operated :D

wizard:
Just to add to the confusion.
My 200 Tdi has a 3 inch lift ( 2 inch springs and 1 inch spacers)
and i wouldnt dream of taking the anti roll bars off.
She handles good on and even better off road.

Regards
wizard :twisted:

PUX:
i have a 300tdi and have taken mine off and it passed its mot like that, and she handles fine on road, but there is not much gain off road only a little. :wink:

--- Quote from: "Tigger" ---You are looking at a potential MOT fail if they aren't on the vehicle.. so you need to be a bit careful.

there could be insurance issues aswell

dminto69:
i agree with mark.yellow.series 3
if the worst came to it you know insurance companys will do thier best to get out of paying as they would say the vehicles not road worthy also i dont know about where you live but in derbyshire you are getting alot of ministry inspectors + dvla + the police stopping and doing inspections on vehicles and we all know what the ministry are like and i suppose if there was no anti roll bar on they would take your vehicle off the road and that could cost alot

also surely landrover would not of fitted one if it was not neccessary but obviuosly they had to to get it through the safety tests from the ministry i may be wrong but i wouldnt be able to live with myself if something happened to my family if something happened because i had taken something off
