Yes, and get the round file out!
YOu also need the larger U-bolts if you havn'e already.
Cheers

Previously you had POSITIVE camber. With a swing spring you should have a couple of degrees of NEGATIVE camber.
You need a round file to enlarge the holes in the anti-roll bar mounting plate on the chassis into slots to take the longer distance between the studs
on the larger bar's U-bolt. Enlarge the front slot "forwards" and the rear slot rearwards by approx equal amounts until the new U-bolt will fit.
You could drill the holes out larger to do the same thing, but that is removing more metal than is necessary and I would advise "slotting" the holes
instead.

Colin has it spot on,
did mine last month, I just used a drill to round out the existing holes towards the chassis AND the other direction, to allow the new larger u-bolts
to fit (remember to allow room to get a spanner or socket on the nuts to do them up!)
