The Build – Part 8
I’ve broken out the rear anti-roll bar steps in our Team Associated B44.3 build into it’s own part for 2 reasons; 1) it didn’t fit with anything else and, 2) you look like you need a small break in the action. Three steps; easy peasy.

Build Notes:
None. Again, it’s only 3 steps.

Build 2 of the anti-roll bar links to the lengths shown in the manual. Pop the anti-roll bar pivot into the open-ended ball cup and rotate it slightly. Mirror this one the other side.

Pop the anti-roll bar link onto the front ball on the suspension arm. Take your anti-roll bar (whichever one you are using; AE supplies 2) and slide it into the pivot ball, securing it with the setscrew. You want to make sure that the anti-roll bar does not extend out past the pivot ball. Attach both sides.

Set the anti-roll bar into the groove and secure it with the 2 2-56 screws (and washers). Do not overtigthen; you want the screws and washers to keep the anti-roll bar in place, not hinder it’s movement.

There ya have it. Three easy steps and a connected anti-roll bar.
