View Full Version : Body roll - HELP!
my car is probably the smallest on er at a wee 1.0ltr, but before you all faint with laughter, jus help me a mo...
i have a lot of body roll going round corners at fast(ish) speeds... has anyone got any remedies for this?
i can change the suspension i suppose, but im ona budget, so is there a cheaper and easier way to fix it?
cheers ppl
thats cos you car as no Antiroll bars, lwered and uprated suspension will help, but wont cure it unless fit ARB's
i will be having a spare front anti roll bar soon from a 16v cordoba,i drink stella;)
There's a Subtle hint if their ever was one:D

Yep thats a roll bar.
But what they are talking about is an anti roll bar which normally attaches to the suspension, The idea being that when you corner and one side of the car dips the suspension the other side is forced up by the Anti roll bar to level the car :)
Well thats basically what it does i`m sure someone else can explain it a lot better.
As for costs and where from i think jason may be able to help you there, And i believe he likes Stella ;)
