The frame extension attachment points appear to be the weak link in the anti-roll bar mounting chain. I know a few people on the list have ripped them loose. What is the recommended method for beefin

I am currently rebuilding the front suspension on my 58 Sprite vintage racer. This car had been a life-long racer before I got it last summer, and I've noticed a few fixes for what appears to be recu

For a street car, don't forget that the sway bar mounts are the lowest point in the front and frequently bottom out especially on lowered cars. I still haven't fixed mine, but was thinking that weldi

How about trying two pieces of 2" angle, (1/8" or 3/16" thick) mounted to the bumper bracket mounts. It's a little wider than stock and you may have to use an aftermarket bracket and bushing but it s

I think they all have them. The problem is the underside of the frame extensions that they are attached to is about as strong as a sardine can. Larry Miller --Original Message-- From: Herb_Goede@ams

I have discovered that my Sprite has no anti-roll bar in the front. Is this a really important omission? What will improve if I fit one and what diameter should I go for - there seem to exist three d

Evangelos, our early cars usually didn't come with one. They don't have the necessary holes in the A-arms. You can drill the holes, but it's no fun. Unless you really really want one, I wouldn't both

My 1975 was missing it when I got it, and I installed a factory one from a junkyard. VERY noticeable handling increase, all for a half hours work and some pocket change. I am very happy with the "fac

No big deal to be without. It was optional equipment on the ones that do have it (1275 cars; I don't really know about the RB cars). If you add one it should decrease the amount of body lean in corn

The simplest and probably the cheapest solution is a 2nd hand standard bar. It is pretty much right if you have standard springs and shocks. If you have stiffer & lower front sprints and stiffer shoc

The cheapest conversion is one that bolts the tele shock on the rear side of the a-arm. One of the AHSDC members may still have the fabricated bits for sale at A$50. You can use any teles, the cheape
