Default whiteline anti roll bar

i have fitted a whitline anti roll bar and links to my version 6 sti,
about a week after fitting i noticed movement when the car was in a corner,there is quite a lot of play in the bar,does anyone have any suggestions on this or has this happened to anyone else??
i have put jubilee clips either side of the bar as a stop gap! although this has helped a bit it hasnt solved the problem.
any help would be greatly appreciated

There is usually lateral movement in the roll bars and the front on mine will move quite alarmingly, up to 20mm. I fitted clips as you have 3 years ago and they are still there.
2
Never had the prob on the rear (24mm bar), and you do not say front or rear in the above.
3
Either way, this movement should not be noticable when driving the car! (is that what you mean above?)

hi graham,
yeah its the front and its very noticable when hard cornering,i will redo the clips and if no joy after i will probably revert back to the standard roll bar.

I'm no expert but harder bushes may be needed to control the wishbones, I have the ALK fitted and it seems fine.... for now !

Mine have the Whiteline yellow ones and the front bar slips across easy as they are so greased to ease the friction.
