Re: sway bars
I agree Tom, hence 'Caveat Emptor' - 'Let the buyer beware'. A blanket
statement that both bars are REQUIRED is beyond sales hype, it is pure BS.
I cited GM selling cars with only 1 bar, but I could have looked much closer
to the digest topic - the Scout only has 1 anti-sway device; the plate
between the front shackles.
Hey, I have some understanding of suspension design; I won a regional Auto-X
championship when the other Tom (M.) was playing with Hot Wheels :)
