    Makes sense why the car always hooked so good before. The person building it completely understands the physics of the car launching and squatting.

    "Doesn't really matter how wide it is." Except for determining how much leverage the chassis has vs. the rollbar, and thereby determining the roll stiffness..

    Exactly. Its basically a torsion spring. Shorter - stiffer

    My first thought. Shorter=tighter bar Closer on the chassis=less leverage. As wide and as stiff as possible.

    As you preload the anti roll bar, it will add weight to the right rear, which will even it out while helping it launch straight.

    Hey Hayden, you are doing a top top job but please be careful with the rear shocks mounted single shear like that. You launch it enough, the bolts will eventually fatigue and then break; usually under high speed load. Mounted properly, double shear (from both sides of the shock), will last a "lifetime".

    Seems to me you need some pre load on the passenger four link. Both for what you’re seeing on the scales and the amount of roll you had at the track. I was able to almost eliminate roll with my Datsun 4 link even without an ARB
