Hi Bob, thanks for your input.

I have found a few things that are a little bit contradictory so far, however I am no expert on the matter.

I'm trying to catch you before you sign off, but here it goes:

I've lowered my car a lot. With out the dropped spindles, my LCA's angle was VERY sharp, which should make me loose negative camber as I roll, correct? This has been discussed earlier on in the thread.

The dropped spindles also raise my roll center, making my front end more roll stiff, which I noticed.

The dropped spindles I have have a little bump steer correection (steering arms are bent downwards) but not quite enough. I want to convert to heim joints and spacers to get the tie rods level again.

Also, after moving to the dropped spindles I noticed:

More front end grip, less squealing of the outside edge of the tire as I was maintaining more negative camber, and LESS bump steer.

And, I have lowered the car with torsion bars, if you were saying that I didn't for some reason.

If I shouldn't increase the spring rates by very much, how can I elliminate roll? With a 26mm rear sway bar, it already feels like I'm stressing the mounting points. I've torn my dedion sway bar mounting points twice and had to get it re-welded.

Anyhow, I hope you see this in time.

PS, Ron Simons coilovers from the Netherlands (Intrax kit) runs up to about 700 lb/in springs up front, in addition to the stock torsion bar (progressive). Rear is something like 300lb/in. This kit is very good, if a little on the firm side. I think higher spring rates was the way to elliminate the roll.
