For a DD/3-4 times a year drag racer where do you recommend putting the end links for length and which of the four holes do you use?

Thanks!

You're talking about the rear sway bar? For drag racing, it really shouldn't matter as long as the end links are the same length and both are set at the same holes. FWIW, I use the farthest holes, which is the softest setting.

I am talking about the RSB; when you say the farthest holes those are the ones that go back toward the back of the car, correct? And is the softest setting going to be the best for the street?

For drag racing I would prefer the stiffest setting and preload the RH side.


That way you look like this:

LOL...very good example!

I just don't know what setting is the stiffest for the Whiteline and I could not find any advice/recommendations on their site on where to place the endlinks/holes to use.

The stiffer setting would be with the links closer to the axle (away from the end of the bar -Less leverage).

With the links closer to the end of the bar it would be softer (more leverage).

Thanks! So if I understand that correctly...for street/DD put the endlinks closer to the rear of the car and for track days closest to the axle, right?

Do you have the front Whiteline bar as well? If not, your car is now biased towards oversteer, and you should have that rear bar as soft as possible.

I concur.
Was told same thing by Jared @ Whiteline.
Therefore, I purchased the front to match.

You're not running ANY front sway bar? I'd be reeeeeally careful going around corners, otherwise the back end is going to flip around real fast.
