<html><body><div>I put on a big fat sway bar on my 1960 TR3A in August, getting ready for Triumphest last weekend in Flagstaff. It made a huge difference. The car does not lean. I don't remember the actual size of the bar but I could find out. It's a custom designed model done by Greg Solow in Santa Cruz, and is used by a few vintage Triumph racers.</div><div><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div>I fabricated a front mounting bracket, which for now I'm not running a front bumper on my Rat Rod, so I took those brackets off and took off the radiator protector, and made basically a wider radiator protector bracket and mount the sway bar to that.<br></div><div><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div><img src="cid:8448e80e-ef77-4767-8833-b95b687a4bc0@icloud.com" class="_auto-scale " alt="IMG_2010web.jpg" title="IMG_2010web.jpg" style="margin: 10px 10px 10px 0px;" data-inline-image="true" data-mce-style="margin: 10px 10px 10px 0px;"></div><div><img src="cid:ec3e8947-90a3-48b1-8d8d-634dbe44d82c@icloud.com" class="_auto-scale " alt="IMG_2014web.jpg" title="IMG_2014web.jpg" style="margin: 10px 10px 10px 0px;" data-inline-image="true" data-mce-style="margin: 10px 10px 10px 0px;"></div><div class="x-apple-signature"><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div class="x-apple-signature"><img src="cid:8436c24d-062f-41eb-bebb-cd114027c64f@icloud.com" class="_auto-scale " alt="IMG_2016web.jpg" title="IMG_2016web.jpg" style="margin: 10px 10px 10px 0px;" data-inline-image="true" data-mce-style="margin: 10px 10px 10px 0px;"></div><div class="x-apple-signature"><img src="cid:0239791d-1a15-45a5-80e1-2d84517e48e8@icloud.com" class="_auto-scale " alt="IMG_2018web.jpg" title="IMG_2018web.jpg" style="margin: 10px 10px 10px 0px;" data-inline-image="true" data-mce-style="margin: 10px 10px 10px 0px;"></div><div class="x-apple-signature">My wife and I won our classes in the autocross at Triumphest, modified TR2, TR3 and TR4.
