Getting ready to install a Smart Racing anti-roll bar(front). But not exactly sure how to install. Do i center the bearing mount to the "cresent" or should it be a little higher or lower? Plus the backing ring will not fit unless you cut some sheet metal from the inside where the gas tank was.

Has anybody else installed one of these anti-roll bars?

Any info will be a great help,

Thanks, Ralph

Also take note of this: Like you said.
You must relieve the area inside of the inner fender well under the fuel tank.
I just pushed it aside with my air chisel. ( don't look if you are offended ) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

Also, when you slide the bar through the fender well bearings for the first time and the bar binds up a bit.
Pull the bar out towards one side or the other and leaving it still inserted through the one side, use the bar as a lever to slightly tweak the fender well until the bearings are alligned. Only takes a moment or two.

Have fun...

Six hour job. Use spray lithium grease, too.

Oh yeah, one more thing. Make sure the kit you have has two spacers for each side as this kit, which works on the 914, is designed for the narrower 911.
