UR rear antiroll bar...

after ages since i got the item from a seller, at last i manage to install it last week... its UR rear anti roll bar... i got it second hand item for Rm200... what is does is it prevents much bodyroll occur to the car chassis during hard cornering...

installation was done at CK exhaust in malim jaya, melaka... installation charges were bloody expensive, Rm60 to be exact... damn other workshops in KL area charging Rm30 only...

anyway, installation was done as soon as the car is jacked up and wheels were removed...





they uses mig welding technique... not sure if it holds... we'll see...



this is how it looks from the bottom... the rear end exhaust piping seems to be in contact with the antiroll bar... going through uneven roads can hear metal knocking sound even though the welding joints are intact...



first impression... low speed corners doesnt feel much difference... but at high speed hard cornering, the rear end really sits firmly onto the ground... and if u give it a hard left-right steer, rear end sways a little, inducing little oversteer effect...

so far so good... i'm still adapting myself to the characteristic of it together with the grip limit available from my michelin pp2 tyres...
