Stock V8 has about 2.796 relative stiffness this bar has alot more. Hotchkiss 25mm hollow has about 7.355 relative stiffness as a comparison. This bar would be ideal for someone looking for improved handling but would like a intermediate bar between a full blown drag sway bar in the rear.

Since my car is constantly in transition the weight shift of the stiffer bar in AX is too much. The rearend is breaking the tires loose instead of letting the weight transfer and put power down to the rear wheels.

I will sell the bar or trade it. I would like to get a watts link ideally but I think I will hold out for 1le or a strano since they are much cheaper.

Also on a sidenote this bar is about a year old and only has 5k miles on it and is mint.

Might be interested in this. I assume it will fit 93-97 no problem?

It will fit a 82-02 F body

That's interesting.. so you have first hand experience. Lot's of people are not for the 25mm rear bar for autox because they experience snap oversteer. Is that what you experienced?

I have a 21mm bmr rear bar and been using a 19mm stock bar these days. I've stuck with the 19mm. Honestly I don't know what's better.. but the 19mm seems to work good for me now. Just a personal preference I guess.

Car would break loose on tight slaloms, the weight transfer would happen to quickly. I would like to get rid of this before I move up to the strano adjustable bar or a watts link.
