Getting rear traction

franchise · **Posted:** Tue Mar 28, 2006 11:50:53

what do u guys think of me getting a 2.4 anti roll bar to get more rear traction?
(i tried the rear w/o an anti roll bar and gripped alot but lost too much steering)
i was also trying to find the thread of short hard arm vs long soft arms in rear, i thot it was david joor saying it: long arms = stability, short arms = more traction. i think that's what i read. can anyone vouch for that?
also i'm thinking about putting soft white xray springs in rear.
People tell me to dremel a 3rd 1.5 straight piston hole to settle down rear, & to use 700 wt mugen shock oil, not sure if i'll do this yet.
here's my setup sheet: http://teamxray.com/xforum/xform/index. ... &setup=xb8
i'm already running highest rear roll center but still too loose
slowly and gradually dialing in my xray... phone number... 911 help help help

would using the +2mm rear hubs
make the rear more stable ?
what would be the other things happening ?

guy02, the +2 hubs in the rear will make the car better in the bumps and give you a little more side bite. However, it will take away some steering as well.
