Doubt it. Does you chassis have anti-roll bar brackets on it? If so, then
they're probably 4 hole brackets, not the two hole ones attached to that
anti roll bar.

I think we have a rusty one lying around somewhere, was replaced by a meaty
1" dia one on the 110 rebuild. It's the proper 110 CSW bar but you'd need
bushes, the link arms and chassis brackets for it as well so it could get
pretty expensive. You'd need the link arms for the eBay one as well
though.

Hi Mark,

<read the following bearing in mind that I have no knowledge of the 110>

I have (Warwick Banks Handling) ARBs on my 88 RRC. The ARB is bolted to
a bracket that is in turn attached to the chassis. They're two options
for fitting to the chassis: Nutserts (sp?) pushed into the chassis
followed by 4 bolts per clamp or, as favoured by the bod that fitted
it, welding the bracket to the chassis.

There is no mention in the ebay ad of all the nonsense rquired to attach
the ARB to the axle. For the WBH kit it consists of two plates - one at
each axle end that are bolted to the radius arms and a pair of short
jointed connecting rods that attach the ARB to each plate. IIRC the
rose joints are as used in the Spitfire (car!) and thus readily available.

Could you go down the 'adapt to circumstances' route with the RR ARB?

If I can find my fitting instructions (seen recently after a rear spring
broke!) do you want a copy?

Richard
