anti dive kit, how to fit?

[Rich B TR7]

Hi All,

 

Anyone have any hints on how to fit? Should be simple but once the spacing blocks in I can't get bolts to line up with bracket on anti roll bar.....

 

Cheers

Hi Richard,

 

Shouldn't be too much of a problem to fit, have you checked that the bolt holes line up through the blocks and bridge piece off the car? When I fitted mine everything just pulled int place - if you have problems you may be able to fit it loose with longer bolts and pull it into place, other wise I have a long metal spike think (podger) I use to line things up and pull into place.

 

Let us know how you get on.

 

Cheers

I did this last year

 

I had put this on another site hope it helps

I have decided to fit an anti dive kit to my car

 

Basically it is 2 aluminum blocks and 4 long bolts

 

 

 

the purpose is to stop the front end diving and rising under acceleration and braking

 

It also helps tighten up the handling

 

It is a common modification to the TR7

 

OK first I put the car up on some ramps ( we don't all have the luxury of a garage lift)

 

 

Basically the blocks go under the front anti roll bar

 

 

This is the mounting with the Rubber bush in it that has to get lowered

 

 

I unbolted it and removed it to insert new poly bush into it

 

 

 

To find there was already new poly bushes in it

 

 

( ah well anybody want a poly bush set for the front of the anti roll bar )

 

 

 

 

Returned it back on to the car along with the block

 

 

New longer bolts and all tightened up

 

 

Now after a test drive a massive difference to the car

 

Good job well done ...

And if you don't want it to look so much as an after thought, you 'alter' them slightly:
