1975 Sprint Front Anti-Roll Bar Diameter

#1 Post by marshman »

Got the front end all back together but came across a minor problem. Got a polyy bush kit for the front and when I came to fit the Anti-Roll bar bushes they were too big, 24mm diameter hole. I measured the bar and it is around 21mm. Phoned Robsport and they said they have 3 bushes listed, 20.5mm, 21mm and 24mm. They are happy to swap them for whatever size I want. I have temprarily refitted the old squished rubber bushes.

Question is what diameter anti-roll bar is standard on a 1975 Sprint? Is mine correct at 21mm diameter?

Thanks

I have just measured the diameter of the anti-roll bar on my 1975 Sprint and it comes out at 22mm. Probably 1mm of this is due to rust and/or underseal so I would guess that 21mm is about right.

Thanks, confirms mine isn't an odd ball :)

Robsport are swapping the 24mm ones for 21mm ones.
