Has anyone had any experience on adding a rear anti roll bar to an early shadow? I am in the process of installing a handling kit on a 1967 T1. I believe it does not have the rear roll bar as standard, so I'm thinking I need to weld on mounting points for the hangers and bushes - anyone else done this or have pictures of the mounting points on the latter Shadow they could post?
Thanks

Can the rear camber on a early silver shadow be adjusted? The technical manuals (Chapter H10) show how to check it, but not adjust it?

Background - I have installed a performance kit and the change in rear ride height has created positive camber.

Hi Irwin, if you type "rolls Royce silver shadow height control adjustment " into YouTube Ronnie has a video explaining same.
When moving adjustment arm do so very slowly as any fast opening of valve may bust seals!.

Thanks Hubert - I actually made a custom spacer to sit between the hub and the drive shaft - seems to have done the job moving the rear camber back. Done it on a few rally cars before and its lived through that pounding. I'm sure RR would be horrified but will see how it goes!!
