Re: Looking for Ward



I have some experience on sway bars from my Porsche 944 Turbo.
Upgrading front only give more understeer. With adjustable sways it can be tested easily. If you upgrade front and leave rear without you could lose some of mentioned drift on the corners.

No track experience with my -76 Spider (yet)

Subject: Looking for Ward
Date: Mon, 14 Oct 2002 14:09:29 EDT

I am looking for a larger front anti-sway bar for my Alfa Spider.
Ricambi is very out of stock and has been for over a year.
I recently heard that Ward of the old Ward and Dean had them still available.
If anyone knows how to contact Ward, I would greatly apprecate the info.
I just got back from the GA AROC Cheaha track event, and had an absolute
blast with my car with Ricambi sport springs and Konis, but was told that the
body roll was too excessive and needed a stiffer front bar. From all that I
talk to, I understand that the rear anti-sway bar is not really necessary.
Any advise on this would be appreciated.
Since top end never exceeded 100mph before braking into hard turns, I really
enjoyed the lower gear ratio rear end which made a real difference in pulling
through the corners allowing for a very nice controlled slide. Very Fun !
I would love to hear from anyone about sway bars.
Thanks!
