raed if you have a rsb, drop then took off your rsb
 
i put on my RSB first, dropped my car a few months later. its been a few years and my suspension getting real harsh. i think taking some of that unsprung weight off the raer axcel will help out for a bit til i get some new shocks.

whats everyones experience with having a rsb, then drop and taking off the rsb. any noticeable difference in handling or road harshness.

I did just that. The car definately rides better without the RSB after a drop. The rear becomes less ridgid and absorbes bumps better, plus it doesn't skip anymore on bumpy curves. Much better feel of the cars limits without the RSB. Less unsprung weight in the rear is the way to go.

It's called a Rear Anti-Sway bar (RASB). I took mine off for weight reduction. I couldn't tell a difference either way.

It does help the ride and harshness a bit by removing. The rears don't transmit the bumps the same. But you do induce a bit more understeer and the car doesn't turn quite as sharp without.

So its either handling or comfort, or am i not understanding it correct? To somebody who doesnt mind a hard/harsh ride, would an RSB be benefitial with a drop?

thanks. im probably taking mine off soon.im never in a situation where i really need any extra oversteer.

definately a big improvement without a rsb.. car tends to wanna oversteer in some cases...
