Elan anti roll bar drop link differences?

PostPost by: Bitsilly » Sun Nov 27, 2022 1:31 pm

I have two sets of anti roll bar drop links mounted on what appears to be two identical anti roll bars.
One set has the holes for the bushes fairly well pointing in the same direction.
The other set is as if the rod between them has been twisted, so the holes point in directions quite a few degrees apart.
Can anyone tell me why they are different?
And which sort is correct for a Sprint (I'm presuming the straight ones).
Cheers

They all should have a twist as the top bolts to the angled front arms of the chassis / sub frame.

The drop links are handed .. possibly you have one set fitted the wrong way round?

I’ll have a re-check thanks.
The last chassis had had a prang and I replaced the bar so it may be that they have been distorted.
