At this past PCA event a fellow competitor was watching my car and mentioned that the front looks nice and planted, but the rear was wallowing around a bit. I'm considering adding the rear bar back on and upping the front anti-roll bar setting to balance the car out and settle the rear down. Is that the correct approach?

Interesting... I don't have an LSD, but I've been feeling some lack of stability in the rear. Maybe it's time to step up to a higher spring rate back there.

I've been feeling some lack of stability in the rear. Tighten the front sway bar OR drop the tire pressure in the rear OR soften the shocks in the rear OR tighten the shocks in the front. As has been said above, one thing at a time ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Andy |
