Migrated instant centers of the rear swing arm, extended anti squat instant center and so fourth. By giving the rear sway bare less mechanical advantage over the rear we get a softer sway bar without having to buy a new one and we can use the OE Corvette bar that comes with the suspension. (so its free )
