Any help appreciated.

As for tech advice. I called GT and spoke with a tech guy. Very informative and was willing to take some time. Also called HRP and got a knowledgeable guy on the phone. Sorry, no personal experience from me though. JR

Thanks for your input.

The products look really nice $$$$$, I'm just trying to find out how to make them work on my car. Would be nice to adjust on the fly.

I'll give them a shout and see what I can find out.

Thanks a lot for you help.

Best Regards,

Ty O'Neal

one idea i had a while back....

currently how are most sway bars adjusted to change stiffness? the length of the arms are changed.

how about a linear actuator instead of the arm, this can be adjusted from the cockpit. it needs some fabrication and R&D to get the stability of the arms correct.

my idea directly changes the affectivness of the sway bar. the arms that rotate, change the force required to bend the arm. so the arms are bending as the sway bar starts to work.
