How to set rear sway bar? Going to the track this week, lost my instructions for the BMR drag bar I installed. I know you're supposed to have the weight in the drivers seat and adjust the end links so one side sits higher than the other or something, just need the details.
I don't have access to scales to do it that way unfortunatly.
Any other tips are welcome too, haven't had this down the track in nearly two years. When it ran mid 11's I set the front shocks to 0 and the rears to 6 and still had the stock rear sway bar. It ran good that way, 1.53 60' times with a small wheelie. Its got one shake down run on this setup and it was a very light throttle pass at 10.42 at 135. I didn't even adjust the shocks or tire PSI, left it in "street" mode. Only a 1.63 60' on that one but I was rolling it out slow on purpose. This was at 3900 lbs race weight. Should be about 3550-3600 now and I plan to hit it harder (wanna go 9's).
Thanks for any help!

i've always done mine with someone of similar weight to myself sitting in the drivers seat. totally disconnect the endlinks, have the person sit in there and then set it up. i do the same thing when setting my front right height. without anyone in my car my drivers side front is a bit higher than the passenger side, with me in the car its dead even.
If you have any questions on getting this set up give us a call, thats why we are here. We are in the office mon-fri 8:30am-6pm est.
