Those clamps that we used for the clamping the rubber water hose to the taps.

It will prevent the swaybar from moving left and right?

I will try to demand the clamps from Whiteline and have them pass to those who had the swaybars and also those that are collecting it end of Sept.

The guy at GRR did not hoist. Only raised one wheel at a time and went under to inspect and retension. Said nothing is wrong. In the absence of any rattles or clongs or any noise from below I believe it's seated fine.

Ideally it should be hoisted. Genesis, flyer, morgan let me know your inspection result.

Had the car raised today for inspection....the rear bar had moved by about an inch!! I couldn't see the effect of the shifting on the endlinks until it was hoisted. The front was fine. Good thing the guys suggested those clamps....had them installed on the rears and the fronts just in case.

I didn't have any rattles or noises, but the rear had def moved out of alignment so best to get it raised, inspected and install the clamps.

Ringer...the mechanic used simple hose clamps in the shop which are not the solid Whiteline specific type that Morgan can get, but are more than sufficient to do the job.

I did ask the shop to get me a 14 sets of clamps. do not know if its free as the shop still have not reply me yet.

Any way Those clamps for the water hose are definitly much more stronger than the Whitelines one.

Look at the whiteline ones, they are tighten by clipping the Ring inwards in "steps"

While the Water hose one. u can screw it to all way to maximum tightness. Just get those stronger ones those for industrial usage with thick ring.
It will work better than the whiteline one , (I believe so)
