Anyone using the Addco rear sway bar?

The solid 7/8", and if so what front bar are you using with it?

Guess I'm the only one who has one of these. That in itself should tell me something about it, I guess. At least I now know how Porsche drivers feel when they get snap oversteer.

The 7/8"/22mm Addco rear bar is three times stiffer than stock. Unless you want oversteer it would not seem like a good idea.

Wow. That is nuts.

I'm using the Eibach sway bars with the Widefoot Racing sway bar mounts and they work very well at reducing roll and balancing handling characteristics. I have a custom adaptor/spacer to fix the issues with mounting the rear bar (also courtesy of Widefoot). There is a definite difference between the soft and hard settings. Good stuff.
