hi just bought a rear anti roll bar from an m3 off ebay a bit of a spur of the moment thing... will this be straight forward fit onto my 320i which is running 325i gear. im fitting 325i trailing arms in the near future so was going to do the rear anti roll bar at the same time.. is this straigh forward? or will it be a nightmare? also does it make a noticeable diffrence?

Well, as I said in that thread, a 1mm increase in diameter increases the cross sectional area by 15%, so there will be added strength. I did this change on my car and it handles pretty nicely.

if you unbolt the bush on the diff and slip it over the top it is a piece of piss mate
