Talking Waywards rear suspension?

Hello I have a bugeye wagon with 45K on it. In the last month i have put a set of new droplinks on it to tighten up the rear end. But since doning this where i am now driving quicker (probably) the rear end seems in some corners to bob a bit. I have though that repacing the antirool bar bushes with Poly ones may solve this. Or should i just bin the rear anti roll bar and get a whitelines to tighen up the rear end. I have checked the rear shockers and they are ok, i just think the problem is from the standard anti-roll bar.

Any advice would be greatful

drop links are a great mod but wont produce the symptons you describe. Yep you certainly can beef up the rear ARB, makes the car turn in better, but "bobbing" does sound like a damper prob FWIW....

I fear Mark is right. An MoT type 'bounce' test is ok for Morris 1000's, but it does sound like they are shot.
