Sure he means anti roll barIt will help when you roll over ... the roof and sides are just a thin alluminium.
Drive more carefully/slowly especially round corners.
I don't think any Defender is fitted with a roll bar as standard (maybe the new 'i'm not really a' defenders are ?)
Early 110 did not use them. Then when the 300tdi came out they had the brackets and some were fitted.Would there be any noticeable benefit in fitting a rear axle roll bar to a 110 commercial van.
The brackets are on the chassis and axle. I assume that only 5 door station wagons were fitted with one as standard.
Thx for the reply and offer. I have access to an anti roll bar locally.Anti-roll bars .... yes, that makes more sense .... cheers @Hicap phill
They are a torsion bar that restricts the ability for the rear axle to independantly articulate.
I had them on my 300TDi
Thery do make the car feel 'stiffer' on road and offten lead to a X-axle 'go nowhere' situation when off road.
They are currently up in my shed - would you like to buy them ?
I will go and dig them out and get some photo's if you're interested.
