Looks like the AR bar is attached to the top A-arm, not the bottom that is what I've seen.

The end link brackets can be flipped to push the ends further down. Then when the suspension is loaded the ends won’t go up as high.

I’m gonna stop posting pics for awhile me thinks.... :lol:

I'm drawing a blank?

Don't stop posting pics! I like them. I like that your not running front brakes too! That has to be faster right? If you can't slow down that obviously means you going faster!! :D :D Keep up the good work!

Here I thought roll bars protected the driver and the roof! Now they are under the cars! I'll never catch up! :D :D

Silly Rick...

Roll bars are there for “after the fact”...

Anti Roll bars are there to help prevent that fact from happenin’ in the first place... :lol:

More fodder fer y’all arm chair quarterbacks...

Adam got the center bracket mounts all welded in... they are 33 1/3* Off-Kilter from the congruous midline of the theoretical perceived roll center of the apex... Its a technical fabricational term only certain people can comprehend... Don’t beat yourselves up about it. Math is hard... :roll: :P

I’m about to head over to Adam’s for another day of ToadRacer fun!

I’ll take some pics of various and sundry things while I’m there. :wink:

We will be working on wiring, fuel lines, prepping for interior paint, etc.

More progess on ToadRacer this weekend. I guess it's time to drop in the Slant... :mrgreen:

I primed and painted everything with Rustoleum. Adam mounted the aftermarket defroster, battery, and finished the trunk floor.
