Default Billingsley Anti roll bar guys...

Trying to get an idea of how much more noise you picked up with the installation of the billingsley single anti roll bar. I daily drive the car and already have rod ended rear suspension. Is it similar to rod ended components with minor clunking over small bumps and the like? Or am I in for a butt ton more noise?

Also how difficult was it to setup? Thanks guys. I need some 60' times this year

I was to understand that you sat in the car and then leveled the tire clearance and then tacked everything in place.

I had Billingsley install one on my 9" I ordered from them a couple weeks ago, when i get it I will post up any directions , and will post up a noise level, however I prolly won't be able to tell a diffence due to the obnoxious exhaust.

Well I recieved my new 9", now I am still wondering where to weld the tabs to the car and how to adjust, also 9"guys how did you run your brake lines, did you just reuse the factory line and bend it to make it fit or go some other route?

I noticed no difference in the car in any way. its was already noisey as hell and launched straight anyway. didn't help 60' times that I could tell.
