  • An interesting article on rear anti-roll bars

    he interesting part is the use of clamps to change the roll stiffness of the rear torsion bar. Anyone on here tried it? Seems a cheap solution.

    If you have the tools and knowhow, a good option. I have neither and like the Whiteline bar.

    Always interested to see someone play in a new way...

      I asked if anyone had tried this a while back and no one replied.

      It seems the most obvious way to increase roll stiffness on a torsion beam rear axle since it is a big anti roll bar as well as a locating member. My concern is whether the clamping points would stress the axle in a way that it wasn't designed.
