    You do but its cheaper. Per tire its more but you avoid sales tax and get free shipping so in the end its a couple hundred cheaper than buying at a store.

    It goes vroom. The one I was eyeing was stolen from me this morning, so now I have to trick the dealership into giving me one of the others for the same price :censored:

    Currie Anti Rock with Aluminum arms has been ordered. My friend got his done and said its definitely worth it. It does hang down a little but its so close to the tire that it shouldn't be a problem

    Links are very different from leaf springs.

    That's what I'm coming to understand. The panhard is kind of a no brainer. It makes sense. Rear only swaybar doesn't really make sense.

    I now hate you more than anything in this world.
    How you knew that existed is beyond me.
    I'm going to bleach my eyeballs now.

    Sure it does. The front has an engine which keeps the COG low. The rear has tons of glass and metal and a much higher COG. Not only that you are driving forwards. Inertia is at the back. Look at any race car on an auto cross track and you'll watch the rear wheel lift, not the front.

    And almost every three link has a panhard. Only triangulated three links don't.

    That all makes sense as well. I've done several go fast Vw's, so I'm pretty acquainted with rear wheel lift. I just always thought rear only swaybar would increase under steer. Probably wouldn't matter that much on big ol LC on 40's.

    Sway bar in the rear keeps the ass planted with predictable oversteer rather than snap oversteer. Sway bar in the front...understeer.
