Hello, does anyone know if the e36 anti roll bars will fit onto an e30?
Reason I ask is that the standard e36 ones are fairly cheap and come in relatively large diameters (even compared to aftermarket e30 anti roll bars).

Will be helpful to know if this has been tried before.

Thanks in advance.

Easiest way to 'up' the diameter of an E30 front ARB is to weld brackets to the struts and use M3 type drop links. Doesn't increase the loadings on the (fragile) ARB mounts on the subframe either.
