Fitting notes
- Only for cars with five-stud wheel hubs (Plus suspension).
- Where replacement mountings are not supplied, reuse the original mounting components only if they are in like-new condition; replace worn parts before fitting.
- Check clearance between the rear anti-roll bar and any aftermarket exhaust. Resolve possible contact before the vehicle is driven.
- H&R permits the front bar to be used without the rear bar, but warns that this may increase understeer. H&R has not tested or verified using the rear bar on its own.
- Follow H&R’s installation instructions and the documents for this exact part number.
Manufacturer-listed documents: with TÜV® certificate. Check the part-specific document for its application conditions.
