Anti Roll Bar Removal

[JAS82N]

Hi, is there a thread on here how to do, pictorial if possible, not really mechanically minded but no problem following instructions, ladybird book style lol

Both is the plan,

They look simple enough to remove however just wary that looks can be deceiving, don't want to get it wrong, be stuck half way through or have an accident, any experienced tips greatfully appreciated :-)

If your using that on the road, are you sure that's a wise thing to do?

Only time on the road is between lanes, she's my TOYota

in that case, crack on.

easy job, a few 12mm mounting bolts and the drop link to wishbone nut (I forget the size) on the front and it's off...never looked at the rear but much of the same I would imagine.

Tempting but I don't think I could get there...I did check out the facebook page though.

I didn't even know there was a facebook for Surf's...

Yeh it's a good set of guys and girls, lost of help and advice, many are on here as well, lots of links go on the face book one to here, the two go hand in hand 👍

Hopefully the UK meet will be successful and become an annual event, really good opportunity for idea sharing, activities and general ogling lol

Sounds like a good idea to me, maybe next year :-0
Got a link for the general facebook page rather than the meet page?

You can of course remove both Front n Rear ARB's ...... it's no McClaren, so drive it respectfully !!
My advise would be if ya wanna go down this route is to remove the rears first n get to feel the difference in drive ability (on road) n do the rears at a later date ....

If your using that on the road, are you sure that's a wise thing to do?

Ran my 1st Surf without any Arb's, for 4-5 years on n off road ... no problems

13+ Years of Surfs ..... n Faultless to a "T" is my Yota !!

Sweet, I've removed both and happy driving it, yes more boaty, in particular on roundabouts, the wife leans into me now lol. As mentioned earlier, it's only really for the trails, as you say no mclaren, built for mud rather than speed 👍

Got a link for the general facebook page rather than the meet page?

On a Mobile device, go to the Owners group page as mentioned, then click on the headline picture, then click on events 👍
