Default wolfe anti roll bar in!

I got my anti roll bar in and installed (thanks Madman!) and it seems to work really good. I tested the welds (did my own welding and im really new at this) when I took the car off the jack stands. I let the rear end down and then lifted the left front, and when i went to let that side down the tire barely touched down due to the right side still being on the jack stands. Man thats got to be alot of force through my weld job... lol

I took it for around a 5 or 6 mile drive to test it all out and it drove really good. I plan on going to the track Friday the 14th. I need to get the roll bar welded in first.

Oh and the PHB was made by Madman.

On the front of that would it be better to move the tabs up? It looks like it hangs really low. I'll put one in at some point this summer but need it to tuck better than that.
Thanks

It does not hang that low....the picture is making it look that way. IMO if you roll the arm upwards more it will throw off your preload or make it more difficult to get it dialed in right.

Is there a correct angle that your looking for, how detailed were the install instructions for placement?

How beneficial is it to have one of these on the street driving it daily??? I really want one because traction is still a issue for me so this is my next mod this summer...

I was wondering how this would effect the traction? I run a 325 under my car now, and when i leave I hit my rolled fenders pretty good, well I bought a set of airbags to try to help the situation, and It helped on the rub, but made my traction horrible. By intalling that antiroll bar, will this effect the weight transfer and make my car spin more?
