Double rear sway bar experiment (pic for Marcus)

I would take it one further ....weld the housing to the frame

Ironworks,sound is not bad. I hate Slowmasters, it is on the "to do" list to be replaced.

Silver69Camaro, the car is a true daily driver and I never speed . I can take turns at double thier posted speed though.

I don't feel 1 1/4 is that massive. The 2 bars now are only slightly "stiffer" then what a single 1 1/4 would be.

One thing to remember is a Gbody bar is bolted to the lower control arm, it acts like a big lever, think breaker bar.

I did some quick and dirty math comparing a 1 1/4" bar mount "Fbody style" vs. "Gbody style".

Since the lever is roughly twice as long it reduces it's "effectiveness" by 45% compared to Fbody mounted bar.

So the 1 1/4" bar on my car is equivalent to a 11/16" bar on 3rd gene Fbody.

I am a drag racer, so take this all with a grain of salt since this is my first attempt to make a car turn.

The front bar is a 36mm Fbody bar, does it seem like a better match now?

Feel free to tell me if my thoughts on this are wrong.

I am always willing to learn.

Oh,pro-tour79, nice!

More Cow Bell

Does the car have a gun rack?

I've seen this quite a few times on Volvos. They use two stock bars.

No Cow Bells, but I do gots a lectric horn that plays Dixie just like the General Lee, yuck yuck.

No gun rack but I guess could Bugee it to the roof rack, being a Wagon and all.

Geez, you guys are brutal, I guy tries something using his brain and not his wallet and gets crushed.

Maybe I need to post on that Volvo board.
