A friend has told me, rear sway bars are suppose to be bad and many people remove them. He says he has heard this from others.
Are rear sway bars good or bad? One of my 914s has the front factory sway bar but no rear sway bar. I have purchased front and rear aftermarket sway bars for one of my vehicles which currently has none, though I have not added them yet. I have also purchased a rear aftermarket sway bar to put on the one that has only the front factory sway bar. Since 914s were designed by Porsche, I find it hard to believe they made a mistake on suspension and handling. These are the things Porsche is famous for. Does anyone have experience with and without rear sway bars and knows. Thank you. |

Not a black or white question.
Setting a suspension up is more calculus then arithmetic. Maybe more like the Uncertainty Principle. Set it up how you like to drive it. You don't state what you have or what you want it to feel like when you drive it or how you drive. |
