Thanks, Gary. I sometimes can be a little...umm...opinionated? I guess that=
's always been part of Tigering :)
But, I do spend a fair amount of time on suspension stuff and have done a g=
ood amount of testing. Still, I certainly don't know it all and am always o=
pen to learning more.

      No doubt, a custom made rear bar, preferably adjustable, can be helpf=
ul, particularly with a modified front end. Agree, the aftermarket stuff av=
ailable is not worth buying. Tiger guys tend to just do what others have do=
