[QUOTE="86merc, post: 11783074, member: 82554"] The design is different. But function is the same. With your typical production car sway bar for the street it needs to flex some. A street car needs the torsional forces bend the sway bar to not break or tear any thing. Then they use rubber or poly bushing to allow more flex as not to break if they were a ridged mount. The drag race bar is going to have a cross bar that is going to require more torsional force to "twist" that bar. So there is less flex in them as to not allow the rear end housing and frame rails separate at a different distance side to side. But because this system has less flex in it you hear people street driving them and ripping the mounting tabs off or breaking the links. You do not set the pinion angle with the anti-roll bar. It does not keep the angle either. As the torque is applied the force causes the housing to rotate. This rotation changes the pinion angle as torque is applied or taken away. Unless you can not clearly making the point you have in your mind? [/QUOTE]
