I KNOW THAT THE ANTI ROLL BARS WERE ORIGINALLY MADE FORE THE 4 LINK TYPE REAR SUSPENSION, I HAVE HEARD OF PEOPLE USING THEM ON LADDER BAR SET UPS, BUT WHAT ABOUT A LEAF SPRING SET UP ?

WILL IT WORK ? AND WOULD I RECEIVE THE SAME ADVANTAGE AS A 4 LINK SET UP ?

9" REAR END, CALVERT SPLIT LEAF SPRINGS WITH CAL TRACS, OF COURSE THE SPRINGS WILL BE MOVED INBOARD.

Phil I've seen a number of the Drag Radial leaf spring cars using them and a few 10.5 tire guys. Problem is the ones I talked to weren't really sure how much if any it helped them 60'. I've been contemplating putting one on mine, but don't really want the added weight unless I really need it.

Been pretty good, keeping really busy between the car work, real work and Xmas stuff LOL. One of the fellas I talked to said that if you're having a problem with the left front coming up a lot higher than the right to take a little travel out of the left front, that tends to even them out some.

Mine comes up about 1' higher on the left than right but seems to go straight. Problem is when the body torques over that much it doesn't help my tires on the right side want to rub. I was mainly looking for a way to help even it out. I think I'll try the limiter thing first and see how that works.
