Sway Bars

[Gioseppe]

I don't think he makes one yet, but its on his list.

and damn well it should be.

My '96 855R has stock 20mm front and 22mm rear swaybars.

I got IPD's F + R. understeer like crazy

I adjusted QBM links as long as 3/4 of thread. Handles like a dream -neutral , much higher ramp entrance speed .Go for it !!! It does feel like RWD. Can't wait for rain to go sideways

OK bringing back a dead thread.

A few pages ago there was a list that showed the stock C70 sway bars as being thicker than the s/v70. Has anyone tried bolting up one of those thicker C70 bars to a S70? Will it fit and does it help the handling (i assume it would being thicker)?

Seems like this could be a good budget upgrade for those of us low on cash.

Anyone? C70 sway bars on a S70?

I was doing some reading on this and came up with the same answer as you slater. I was planning on getting the stock R bar for my wagon and then trying the smallest front bar made. I find it hard to believe that it is possible to get a car as unbalanced as ours to oversteer without a rediculously stiff rear and alot of weight reduction up front.

for those interested

Antiroll bars

actually weight reduction up front would lessend the front traction, just to split hairs. The cars not really balanced that badly for a fwd.

Hey RS7, So how long did you adjust the links to bolt to bolt? Just the fronts right?

One more for post 666 :ph34r:

it would lessen it in a straight line and maybe corner exit, but you could turn in faster with less weight in the front to change direction...less weight or moving the CG toward the center of the car is always good

.i just saw this post and as for hallow vs solid sway bar and it dosnt really matter. I remember in my materials class an example we did showed that a tube with like 10% of its radius solid only differed 3% in torsional rigidity from a solid one same radius....that might not be exact but i know it was low enough that we could never notice it.
