Project less is more

[Norm Peterson]

Sam Strano's bars are decent (I think they're actually made by Hellwig). I've got the older set with the 22mm rear bar, and it steers on the throttle in 3rd gear quite nicely ('08 with a 4.6L, bars set mid-firm front, full firm rear). The newer set with the 25mm rear bar is likely better suited to cars with aftermarket spring sets where the front spring rate is typically greater than the rear spring rate. All of the OE setups - obviously including what I've still got on my own car - have the rear springs stiffer than the fronts and wouldn't want as much rear bar for the same balance.

Thanks Norm. I will give Sam a call. He's been telling me to call him anyway.
