Installing an Anti-Roll Bar

Model: Peugeot 106 MK 1 - Years 1991-2004
Part: Anti-roll bar

All cars are already equipped with an anti-roll bar, a mechanical component that connects the suspension hubs of independent wheel type on the same axle to counteract roll, the phenomenon that occurs during rapid direction changes. Under such conditions, load transfer occurs towards the outer part of the vehicle, which tends to lean towards the outside of the curve (hence roll) due to centrifugal force. To improve road holding and reduce roll, you could install stiffer springs and dampers, but this would compromise driving comfort. An excellent solution is to install an additional stabiliser bar, which connects the tops of the dampers. The installation is extremely simple; just unscrew the fastening nuts of the damper supports, insert the bar's flanges, and re-screw them.
