Have you seen Ivo's stiffer anti roll bars? Good to see some bits like this coming out. There is a toe link kit somewhere too. 👍

Got it thanks! Looks like these are the "Sport" ones whereas mine presumably has the "Race" ones. Any idea of the difference?

Afraid I don’t know the difference, but sure Craig will know. Cheers

Link to roll bar please. :wink: Is Ivo, Elise Shop?

Is this the toe link kit that you are referring to?

Yep Elise Shop.

I can't remember where I saw the toe link. I'll have a hunt 👍

Very nice looking upgraded toe link from Seriously Lotus.

The picture of the sheared standard item is a bit scary. 😲

Does look very nice however the point of failure doesn’t look any thicker on the newer item (and can’t be if it uses standard saddle mount) so only way it would be any better here is if it’s made of a higher grade steel. I’m assuming it is but it would be good to know what grade it actually is

B level sport dampers have 2 groves just above the lower eye the C level race ones don't have the groves.
The ones in the picture are race D138D0031F, sports are C138D0031F.

That's a stroke of luck then! I've now got a pair heading north so should have the car back on the road for the weekend.
