Fitting a front Anti Roll Bar

Do I have to remove the tension link brackets to fit a new Anti Roll Bar (sway bar... although I dislike using that name) to the front of my RX7 ?

I've not got the correct sized bushes yet and would like to know how much work I've landed myself and whether I'll change the tension rod bushes at the same time.

Thanks,
Mike

Yes they do, especially if you are going with a 1-1/8" front bar.

FYI, measure the length of threads exposed from the end of each tension rod. That will help with re-allining your front end, so you can drive it down to the shop to make sure that your still within specs.

may as well change the bushes on those too (have the parts already .. but they are fine so I wasn't going to pull them apart for no reason.

Thanks for the info ... I'm using a 27mm front bar BTW (1 1/16" ish)
