It's been a busy morning here at TiC with the Genesis Coupe.
After we installed the prototype Kartboy lever, we went on to install the prototype TiC rear anti-roll bar.
I took a few pics along the way to share what we're doing.
First off the ends. We did it this way to set up the length we need and play around with things. Tacking these on over and over again while playing with the arm length is a whole lot better than having to remake the bar over and over again. Once we got it where we liked we flux core welded it on for testing.
I don't believe that this end technique will make it into production, but it sure did make mocking up the bar a whole lot easier than what we've done in the past.
Second off the endlink/droplink angle. This is with the car completely in the air thus the angle. Pics of it with the suspension loaded are down below.
From the other side. It's a two way adjustable bar with a normal setting, and then a softer setting. Pay attention to the bushings and saddles.
Another couple shots.
The saddles. Notice the slotting. This is actually a great thing as you'll now be able to slide the bar back when you go to the softer setting to keep the endlink at more of a right angle to the arm end. This will be on the production piece.
Span of the bar.
I think the blue goes nicely...
The following pics are with the car back on the ground. You can see the endlinks return to the stock position.
Oh, I forgot to add this, and I know everyone is going to ask. 25mm.
