Help me understand the use of a rear sway bar

[Steve C]

Hi

I often have ideas that I dont act on, maybe Im lazy or I just dont have time.

I thought that I could make an effective adjustable front bar for a 1302/1303 by using an adjustable bar similar to the rear, it would need to flat, unlike the usual rear bar on a bug, maybe something off another type of car. Then mount it on the chassis say around where the M/C is the have the sway bar arms running forward to link up where the original front bar mounts to the lower control arms, this linkage you could make adjustable for stiffness, you could also mount the bar in a similar way but have in mounted above the chassis under the fuel tank.

Hopefully some enterprising VW person might like this idea enough to give it a try.
