You are probably right, but it may have been to improve the ride quality? |

The bigger bump stops at the back and mini shocks at the front just minimise the front to back rocking when you accelerate/move away.
The anti roll bar keeps principally the back end but also the whole car slightly flatter when cornering hard. Have talked to the rally guys who say you only really notice it's there when you're on gravel and it helps (with a bit of left foot braking) to counter the understeer and get the tail out. We shall see!

Do you have any specs on the anti roll bar? Diameter, length, mounting etc.

Yes - one of the guys that had one on his car that I met at the rally at Milton Keynes gave me some photos and dimensions. I had it made by an outfit called Gartrac who were quite well known rally guys in the '70s and are still around. They did in in stainless and charged I think about £160 for the job. It's yet to go on the car so I don't know how accurate the specs were. It'll be going on the car in the next few weeks so I can let you know then or send you the stuff now - up to you. The mounting bits are already there - so it's (hopefully) pretty straightforward - but when haven't we heard that before?
Cheers
Andrew
