I already have the 7/8 anti-roll bar, and i want to install urethane bushuings at some point too. I will have to try out the Swing spring idea next season.

It offers up too much body roll compared to the fixed spring. I have also found that with th; /html/spitfires/2002-02/msg00078.html (7,931 bytes)

I have not seen how the anti sway bar is mounted, so I don't know the dynamics of it.
