<VV> '65 Front Stabilizer Bar Installation

[Joel McGregor]

Some thoughts:

The dip in the middle of the bar goes down & the bends at the ends go forward of the center portion of the bar.

The links holding the bar should be close to vertical.

This picture is a '64 but it is almost identical.  Left is rear.  You can see the relationship to the tank also.  Of course you may have to turn the picture over since you are down under...

G'day from Australia everyone,

I have been very busy with the construction of a new garage over the past 18 months and I am having eye surgery in January 2016. As soon as all of this is behind me I want to get back to finishing the restoration of our right hand drive '65 Monza convertible.



At present I am experiencing problems installing the front stabilizer bar. It fits but it's hard up against the fuel tank which of course is not right. I am certain I have fitted the fuel tank correctly but wonder if I have by chance managed to install the stabilizer upside down or 180 degrees around. I can of course remove it, turn it over and attempt to reinstall it, but before I do this I wondered if anyone has had a similar problem or could give me some advice?



In closing I hope everyone had a great Xmas and that 2016 is a great for all of you.

Regards from down under

Carl Kelsen
