the anti roll bar is just mounted with bits of rubber mounted round the roll bad and then clamps to the tie bar?? do you mean the tie bar mounts to the chassis?

if its the tie bar bushes, thay are a right pain to do! vaux have a press to do them, they charge £30 a bush to press them in at my local dealer.

after trying to do them for 2 hours and them popping out everytime, i did mine by positioning the bush into place in the bracket and putting the washer over the front one and doing the nut up. easy
