Puma Double Cab - Anti Roll Bars.....
Had a quick look at my new dc at the dealers today to find it has anti rolls fitted Very Happy my present one is an 08 and no anti roll bars fitted, when on the Salisbury greenlaning weekend i noticed Glyn`s 09 dc has anti roll bars.
How many of you with double cabs have anti roll bars?

Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Good to hear that you got them Matt- I think it could be a new thing to meet European standards.

So how does the new gal look?

how i understand it is that you only get the anti roll bars on the xs or i was told when oyu order the vehicle with the alloys as an option, this is what i did but didn't get the anti roll bars, from this i can only guess that the guy who fit's them was on a break when mine roll'd past, i;m now glad as i'v been told, and have seen the difference they make in articulation, we all know that a couple of more inches can make a real diffrence Laughing

It must be because the XS is set up as HD (3.5Ton) as standard and therefore they fit them for safety reasons.

When i built my 110, i never had them fitted (although they were in the garage, i just never got around to it).

now i've got them on, the difference is noticible. front end is much stiffer when going into bends (especially with the weight of my winch and bar).

I may have lost some axle travel, but i'd rather have good road manners and have to winch now and again.

I removed my rear roll bars after the bushes kept on breaking. I have since fitted Firestone Air Helpers just to assist when under heavy load. Having the additional articulation without the bars is a pleasure, and with the air-helpers, the road manners are still intact.
