Increase the spring rate beyond a certain threshold and the chassis may flex and become a part of the overall spring rate - not recommended. A pre-964 cab, unless heavily fortified, is no match for a coupe that isn't all that rigid anyway.
Here's a lengthy discussion on chassis reinforcement: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-911-technical-forum/259557-structural-reinforcement.html Sherwood |

Just sliding out from under my car. Eibach sway bar is in. Love the bar, Other than that, I'm sure I'll love it. :D Oh, and the Eibach was one pound heavier than the stock bar....so my car now weighs in at 2,541#'s... |

OK, I'm gonna go cool off and likely regret the hit piece I just posted. For the price I have zero reason to complain. It would seem that when compared to the bars that are $675 each, Eibach could offer machined brackets at $100/set and still be hundreds under the price of the competition.

I found the calculator at the Sway Away web site is helpful when you get around to figuring what spring rate your sway bars will add to each end of the car.

Hello Douglas
We will add a billet aluminum bracket to the rear. I will send you a PM and we can set up an appointment to mount it on your car. Sorry about the frustration Christian at Eibach |

Well I am now a VERY HAPPY customer.
Prior to me buying my car 10 years ago the passenger side sway bar mount had been replaced with a new stamped factory replacement part. In fact, the paper part no tag was still on it. It was cheap and thin and only had small bolts welded to it. It was due to fail and did when I went to tighten down the new bushing from Energy Suspension, the bushing included in the Eibach kit, I stripped the threads. At some point, 7 or 8 years ago my original driver's side mount had ripped off so I replaced it with a WEVO I got from Rennsport Systems. Well, now both sides of the car have the same WEVO mounting points. I had the car level and used the same dial indicator used to set spring plate angle to duplicate the left side angle on the new right side. The frame is rounded and has no firm placement location so getting them identical is up to you. Ok, so mid-week I got the bar on....adjustable drop links made it even easier. Yesterday I texted a local buddy at 5:30 AM and found my way to the Corona C&C at Saleen Mustang. Car was flawless all the way there. Seemed a bit harsh but that was tire pressure. Lowered the pressure to 2.5 bars (35 psi) and it was perfect. Using the closest holes on the bar the car is flat. Absolutely no roll what so ever. Ended up going to Lake Elsinore with some PCA guys then home for a bit. Later headed up Baldy road several times. Slight push, just enough. Car is better than expected. No tram-lining, no increase in input needed, just a nice firm resistance to rolling in the turns. Non-existent going down the road then a very noticable difference when pushed hard in the turns. I love it. Christian at Eibach has invited me to come in later this week to test out some billet bushing brackets. Can't wait. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1509295646.jpg |
Nice work, your experience aligns perfectly with mine with 23/22 FF/RR setup - no downsides.

Great to hear. We will have the aluminum bracket in a week. There will also be a billet aluminum bracket for the front bar.
We are gone to SEMA the next few days. Stop by at our booth, if any of you are there and have questions about the kits. Ask for Ryan or myself.' Christian |
