Joelog Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Hello all, I have been running a 2001 imported 3L since 2013 and have been told by the MOT centre that the front drop links have too much play and require replacing. These are plastic and different to the standard lupo version. My issue is that my ones push directly onto the ends of the anti roll bar ends but all diagrams I can find show a bolt that screws directly into the end of the anti roll bar. I can only find a threaded version of the drop link online. Do any 3L owners out there know if there was a version of anti roll bar that just plugs into the drop link?

Rich Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Clean up the roll bar and you will see the thread for removing the ball from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelog Posted December 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Rich, do you reckon the ball with thread may have pulled out of the link then? I will give it a brushing this evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Yes I do. Rollbars aren't formed with metal balls on them, clean it up and you will find where the spanner goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
