Hi Chaps,

Alex, thanks for the acknowledgement. The reasoning behind my use of plastic spacers was that they will have a self lubricating effect and I was concerned about the metal to metal contact and the lack of reliable lubrication provision. I do wonder about the durability but that can be easily monitored.

Xellex, I also found the slight misalignment of the anti-roll bar ends but I easily resolved that by using rod ends with an adjustable threaded tube between to couple the AR bar and the spring plate. The rod ends have a lateral misalignment tolerance so they couple up well. Also, the threaded adjustment allows a variation on the AR bar actuation angle to give slightly different lever arm lengths to (slightly) stiffen the bar.
