    Does any1 know if both anti roll bar end plates come off or is it just the side with the plastic torx screw? I'm halfway through changing my rear axle over today and came to take the anti roll bar out and it hit the wall in my garage.. ooops! should have checked first but its done now lol! if I can get the other end off then i can pull it out the other side as theres loads of space there.. other wise need to drop the axle so I can get it out but its just a bit awkward with the brake lines etc,

    Cheers

    If there is no bolt hole on the arb plate then it is fixed to the arb its self, so I imagine its only the side you already got off buddy, sorry to be the barer of bad news lol

    Guessing they both come off as both parts are listed on citroen as L/H and R/H rear.

    they only come off if there is a bolt hole through the centre of the plate if i remember correctly? one will DEFO come off, other one is normally welded to ARB if solid

    normally, the nearside has a seperate end plate and the offside (drivers) is integral with the arb itself

    had to drop the axle down in the end so I could twist it enough to get it out, had fun holding the axle up whilst trying to untangle the brake lines and get the arb out at the same time lol! oh well its done now
