Front Sway Bar Link
« on: June 22, 2008, 12:27:05 PM »

My Front Sway Bar Link
There is a small bar welded to the end of the SB to prevent the bracket from rotating.

  Looks very Indy car-esque! Shocked  Are you driving this car? I'm curious if it generates noise(s). The reason I ask is why did the all OEM's use bushings? Control shocks and sudden stresses maybe?  Dunno Of course they, the OEM's, are cheap(er) and your little goodie, would be a permanent fix so no parts could be sold and they would lose revenue if they used yours as a replacement part. Just wondering...

So it's really not running around on the streets...  that much.  Grin  Usually, if it is a racer, the sway bar is one of the first things to come up missing; weight off the nose and allows the front suspension to fall more freely.

P.S. If you do start to hear noises, do like my customers' drivers do: just turn the radio up louder!   lol bash

As a race car this car will never be a drag racer.  While it may hit the strip once in a while, it has been built as a road racer.  Autocross maybe but Silver State Classic for sure.  If I just wanted a drag car it would still have the slant 6 torsion bars instead of the .920 sized that it has.  The more each side of the swaybar flexes the less effective it is.  That's alos why this car has Boxster front disks and Cobra rear disks and dearched B body SS springs.
