[Quantum Owners] Re: Rear Anti - roll bar bush bracket.

2015-08-07 Thread Dave English 

Hi Glyn

One of my rear anti-roll bar brackets was corroded through when I did my 
refurb recently. Mine were supplied with the kit (Q2-009) so I ended up 
just removing the rear anti-roll bar. With the much lower weight of the 
rear of the 2+2, the anti-roll bar doesn't make a noticeable difference to 
the handling, in fact I have not noticed any difference and I do, shall we 
say, take advantage of the handling somewhat!
Additionally, the build manual seems to regard fitting the anti-roll bar as 
optional - it keeps using the phrase "if fitting the anti-roll bar".
Initially I cut down the anti-roll bar links to act as spacers for the 
shock absorber bolts but I have since replaced the bolts with slightly 
shorter ones (high tensile, not stainless steel).

Just an idea, I believe in 'Keep It Simple'.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Rear Anti - roll bar bush bracket.

2015-08-07 Thread Jim Hearne 
I had that idea once when a Mk2 Fiesta failed an MOT on the rear anti 
roll bar drop links.
I said to the tester, can i just remove the anti-roll bar and he said 
no, because the car was supposed to have one it had to be there to pass 
the MOT.
You would probably get away with it on a Quantum though as they would be 
unlikely to know what the standard spec was supposed to be.

Thanks, this thread has been good. The committee are working towards a 
"register" of owners locations that can be made available to other members, 
within the constraints of data protection. There will be more information in 
future mags about this. Information from these posts will be helpful. It was 
just ftom your post, I wanted to be sure we ciuld link to your membership.
