Hi Guys
Hope you all had a nice christmas hollyday I am in the Final stage of the Rear swaybar reproduction which I will have ready in a good few weeks I am making the set complete in 16mm and 18mm and to OEM specs ( rubbers and bushing will be OEM Porsche ) the kit will come complete , we are at 350-420 Euro range for a full kit , parts will be sold seperate also, also I made a plate so you dont need to weld the brackets on , more info will follow BUT My question is straight forward what would you put on 16, 18 , or do I also make a 20 mm Marek Attached thumbnail(s)

I didn't think the sixes came with sway bars, just the fours starting in 73??
I would be interested in the larger bar for sure, the 20mm sounds interesting. From a swaybar calculator; I think the stock 16mm bar is only good for about 43lbs of spring force. I guessed on the bar length and arm length to plug in the calculator. Can you share the dimensions of the bar? (width and lever arm length). we could figure out what the rate is pretty easily. My guess was 36 inches wide, 14 inch lever arm length, take away 4 inches for the position of end links in relation to the centerline of the axle. |
