1. re: Rear anti-roll bars (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 1 Aug 00 13:23:54 EDT; The obvious answer would be the addition of an appropriately sized front bar to balance the rear one. Result: Flatter cornering with similar balance. To really do it right of course you'd use a matc; /html/spridgets/2000-08/msg00023.html (7,431 bytes)

Re: Rear anti-roll bars (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 1 Aug 2000 16:27:11 EDT; I think the result doesn't change at the rear only you are less likely to oversteer because you have so much mooooooooooooooore understeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer.

4. Re: Rear anti-roll bars (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Wed, 2 Aug 2000 13:17:40 EDT; The question is though, would the car corner at even higher speeds with no anti roll bar at the rear and less roll stiffness at the front?

An anti roll bar on the rear of a live axle car is not the same as increasing spring stiffness and does not do the same thing.

11. re: Rear anti-roll bars (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Wed, 2 Aug 00 15:58:23 EDT; per Daniel... I agree with Daniel in that, with your currently way too stiff rear springs, you do NOT want to add a rear anti-roll bar. That's the nice thing about anti-roll bars though.
