Re: Sway Bars. -a question of my own

["Alan Inglis" <ainglis@bcresearch.com>]

I don't thikn sway bars were fitted as standard. My project bug-eye does
not have drilled A-arms, but later cars were fitted with drilled A-arms,
while the sway bar (anti-roll bar) was optional. But very worth while. I
just bought used parts and an new slightly oversize bar (I've forgotten
what size!) from Frontline - seems to work great! But I found that the drop
links can be too badly worn - they have rubber bushings on both ends that
wear and the threads that go through the bar can rust to nothing - then you
need new drop links. After market links are available.

I'm going to assume that sway bars stop the car from swaying. My question
is,
should my car already have one? If so, how can I tell? Do they have to have
one?

 I'm sure this seems like an utterly stupid question, so let's just assume
I'm
utterly stupid :)
