Similarly, the MGA with radial ply tyres
does benefit from adding the optional
9/16 th inch diameter front anti-roll bar
which happens to be standard fitment to
MGB tourers. As they are now most
likely all on radials they too could proba-
bly be improved by changing up to a
5/8 th anti-roll bar. Another trading op-
portunity for MGA owners!
The only other suspension modification I
would suggest for radial ply tyres involve
changing the bushes in the rear spring
shackles to nylothane to reduce side-
ways movement and replacing standard
bushes with MGB V8 bushes in the in-
ner wishbone pivots of the front suspen-
sion to improve steering precision.
