Subject: Spridget Parts On Special from Mini Mania 2/06
Although installing wide tires will increase your Spridget's horsepower, it
also causes the rear axle to move around under cornering and acceleration
forces. You'll see evidence of this in signs of tire rub on the inner edge of
the fender when it seems that there is plenty of clearance. Mini Mania has
designed and tested our own Sprite Axle Stabilizer Bar. By forming triangle
between the rear springs and the body, this lateral link eliminates side to
side motion of the rear axle while reducing the tendency of the axle to roll
under braking and acceleration. Detailed step by step instructions and diagrams
are included to insure trouble-free installation. For Semi-elliptic Spridgets.
