Re: Designing rear anti-roll bar brackets for my RF

You understand correctly, Pat. I don't know of too many RF owners/builders who are going with wide rear tires and Gulf flares; for those who are, I would think a rear anti-roll bar is a must. For everyone else, the primary benefit is converting a single-shear link to double shear.

I just need some input from someone who's familiar with machining as to what tolerances are appropriate and what materials should be used. I guess one way to eliminate the bend tolerance question would be to make the bracket out of three pieces - two side plates and the folded top-side plate. The assembly would then have to be welded up.
