I don't notice the difference
I have a 22mm Mini Madness rear sway bar. And I have adjusted it to the firmest setting and do not notice any difference from the medium setting.
Should I do any adjustments to the end links to compincate ? |
try taking a FAST turn and let me know if you end up in a ditch or on a
light pole. :wink: |

I did take it to a track and that's why I making the statement. No difference
|
Then you didnt push it hard enuff.
As the roundy round boys say, the difference is whether you smack the wall with the hood or the trunk. Your not going to feel anything until your at 11/10s (or just under) |

No difference ?
Have you ever pushed the car to the point that it starts to understeer ?
If you get to that same place again, speed, tight corner you should notice that you *might* be able to take that corner a *little* faster than before.... BUT like it's been said - trying to find out what the NEW limit is on the Street could leave you with a Nasty & Expen$$ive surprise... |
I guess that 35 years of driving and racing cars doesn't make me a professional but I know where the limits of my car are because I've been there and past them.
According to timed laps and pushing to the limits there have been no difference in times. So according to this and what you all seem to be saying is that you don't need to adjust the end links and just be happy with what I have. |

Yea, try this. If it doesn't work, then something's wrong. My H-Sport comp on the softest setting will cause the rear end to start coming around in the rain on lift-off.

I always start by writing, "keep in mind" because everyone may have a different experience based upon other mods.
consider this; the endlink's position is fixed at the bottom. You've reloacted the top portion of the endlink to the setting closest to the torque tube portion of the swaybar. This in theory places the endlink at an extreme angle when viewed from the side. Endlinks work best when absolutely perpendicular to a horizontal bar end at ride height (the hole in the end of the bar is on the same axis as the center of the bar as it passes thru the bushing...not possible with the mini's rear bar). At an angle, the endlink's effectiveness is diluted. At an extreme, a horizontal endlink will do nothing. At some level I'm not surprised by your impression. Are your endlinks adjustable? |

meb, you seem very sensitive to that term "adjustable" :lol: :wink: |
Everytime I either read adjustable or hear it, my hair catches on fire...folks in my office randomly shout out 'adjustable?' so they can watch:lol:

Att: Meb, yes they are Alta Adjustable end links, I appreciate YOUR knowledge.
This is exactly what info I was looking. |
:thumbsup:
That's why in my quick review of the Webb bar I suggested to Randy he contemplate a slider or some sort of effective adapter that will allow the endlinks to be adjusted at the bottom as well. I don't know if space prevents this, but in theory it is certainly worth a look. |
