Re: Rear anti rollbar adjustment for 1 inch drop
Thank you all for the advice, will certainly look into both the axle location kit and the front strut brace (they always make sports cars look a bit more "rough and ready" don't they!) Will probably be needed for a cheeky Le Mans/Spanish/Andorran road trip i have coming up in June! Greatly...

Re: WANTED- Blank Mk3 VIN Plate
Thanks for the thread, i did check it and unfortunately the product is no longer available. Quickly checked Ebay again and one has just been put up.
However it is a auction and id honestly just prefer to buy it as soon as. Asked the seller so we'll see.

Re: Rear anti rollbar adjustment for 1 inch drop
i have thought about that kit, will have a better look when funds allow. Have you installed it yourself? if so, how much of a difference did it make from a handling perspective?

Re: Rear anti rollbar adjustment for 1 inch drop
Beg your pardon, i was talking from a general point of view.
I am yet to reassemble the ARB and was afraid of it sitting too low or too high for the set up. i'll check the very warn Haynes manual later for a bit more insight.
I appreciate the advice.

Re: Rear anti rollbar adjustment for 1 inch drop
Ah i see, doesn't seem to be too big of a deal when swapping ride heights. i guess i'll eye it up, see how much of an affect it has on the handling and then dial it in afterwards.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!

Hi,
The wheels were made in 1986 and originally came from a 1.6 mk3 Capri Laser.
Yep, all a matching set in terms of wheels.
