Yours is interesting; it is adjustable for corner wieght jacking. it has a higher potential roll stiffness in the center tube itself, but the method of attachment to the twisting beam reduces that effectiveness, therefore its between the 1.00and the 1.25 bar. BUT it has a spherically jointed twsiting beam pivot and that makes the roll center change signficantly better and more predictable as the rubber pivot makes the rear roll stifness/roll center change somewhat weird...evntually by say end of May I will have a new pivot bearing that maven will love and the hardcore guys will want, and then they will be like you....

Josh for bars etc... cabs and pivots are in the works trying to get the base product shipments in to get finished product out and it keeps biting me, so Josh cant set prices until we see what the core parts are costing...all of this seems to take a lot longer than i figure....and we are all impatient to get stuff .....

So does either bar effect ride quality? As in cruzing down the highway will I feel more bumps and such?

newp ....but something i found the other day, if there is too much toe-in (I had 1 degree, which is way too much, in an experiment ) and the car drove off throttle like I was pulling a dog's tail. When I gave it 1 degree of toe -out, the car behaved over bumps and especially under braking, like a demon was trying to steer me every which way but straight. So in conclusion, making the car respond better with bars and cabs makes it more sensitive to wrong alignment settings . Set at zero toe in, my little RL is a sweetheart to drive. In fact, I think I will just go drive for six hours in it today and have a blast in the nice weather.....

Install is easy, 4 bolts. you could literlally just lay under your car and bolt it on. Which is actually not a bad way to do it. Find a nice flat piece of ground, take all the excess crap out of your car, and bolt it on.
