I thought someone here had one of these... If you dont mind I got a couple questions.
The Gendron Bar, although a little expensive, is very nice. Once I figured everything out the installation was extremely easy. I had a couple simple questions about installing (confirming I did everything right) and those guys at small fortune racing were real good at answering, and took the time to make sure I was happy.
My bar has 6 holes... I tried to run the bar at the stiffest setting, and I couldnt get the bolt in the end link, so I tried to remove the outer arm, install the endlink, then reinstall the arm, and it still didnt fit. The strut/ welded brake line bracket is in the way. When I asked Bill Gendron about this he said that they added the two stiffest holes for a couple guys who needed the bar a little stiffer... So, I ended up placing the endlink on the rear side of the lower control arm, and installed the link to the 3rd from softest setting- basically right in the middle. The bar installed easily here.
My initial reactions are amazing. I have 225s up front and 245s in the rear. Before this bar my car oversteered if I sneezed during a turn, now the car is so neutral- only way I could get the rear end out is with lots of power- and even then it was very managable...
After that long post... basically I was wondering what others run theres at- and if anyone had problems using the 2 stiffer holes

See you at the next CDC AutoX!


Hopefully, I'll have my new swaybar installed as well.

I run on the second stiffest setting.

Do you have 6 holes in your bar? Did you have to load up the sway bar to get the bolt into the end link? I dont know if Ill need it, but I would deffinatly like the option to make the bar stiffer

Im trying to find an autocross this weekend to try it out... Im on the waiting list for Fedex... and my next track day isnt until next month...

Yes, I have the newer version Gendron bar. We did it late one night after work. My assistant manager helped, but we scurried to complete the task as he is very allergic to cats/dogs. He started weezing badly. I'll crawl under the car this weekend to change the driveline fluids. When I do, I'll have a look-see at the bar.

I do remember it being a PITA because of the shock-mounted brake line bracket. I bent it to make room. I have Koni Yellows.
