So many cars so little time!
Re: Front Sway Bar
I had issues with HR fouling harmonic balancer but that was on a red six. I may have been fitting it upside down to clear front outrigger. The HR bar is not flat section like FB EK. In the end I got one custom made quite cheaply under $100 at the time which was years ago. Business sadly no longer exists.

If anybody remembers Selby Sway Bars, Signature is run by Todd Selby one of the sons so plenty of knowledge there.

Yes certainly remember Selby. I fitted a Selby Sway bar to the rear of my FB sedan 36 yrs ago. I was hopeful that it would improve the cars performance! Wishful thinking given car was factory stock
Sedan remains in the shed still with Selby bar fitted!

Re: Front Sway Bar
Great info Neil.
Fitting a rear whiteline which is XK XB fraud. They used to be selby I’m told. Also have a NOS Selby EH bar which is a less stiff setup. Will see how it handles with the fraud bar. If I want a bit of oversteer back I can try the other.

Re: Front Sway Bar
I should order one for the rattler and have it sent with yours , we can share the freight costs

Re: Front Sway Bar
No worries Blacky Todd said 4 to 5 weeks delivery from order so if you email Todd now it may tie in front bar is going to be 24mm and the rear 18mm.
Email address is signatureswaybars@bigpond.com front was $245 rear $310 and I think $50 delivery whic I thought was pretty reasonable.
