Could someone give me some input with respect to anti-sway bars on
rubber bumper Midgets.
FASPEC in Oregon says: Use a 3/4 inch bar. Do not use a rare bar as these
can actually make the car handle worse.
Triumph Tune in Londan say: Use a 3/4 inch bar on the front for fast road
and competition, and only for maxiumun control in competition use a 7/8
inch bar. They do not mention nor make a rare bar for Midgets.
ADDCO says: That the 7/8 is the way to go on the front and use a 5/8 on
the rear.
One of you netters says: I have a Midget with a 7/8 on the front and a 5/8
on the back and it is a great street set up. Both bars are ADDCO. Winners
Circle bars (7/8) are really stiff and only for competition use.
I want the car as a street car, never to be used in competition, but will
handle really well along tight corners on winndy open roads. The questions
are: what size on the front? If I get a big front bar (7/8) will I then
need a rear bar. If I get the 3/4 inch front bar will this be enough and
will I still need a rear bar or are these detrimental to handling.
I wonder if there is a difinitive answer?
Cheers Dennis
BTW the 3/4 inch bar from TT is about $70 including fittings.
