Jim, looking at your post would you say a daily driver would feel the benefit from this? I hate to be "lets see some dyno charts before I buy this"....but I am very curios as to how much of a difference in feel on the streets this will give (ex: light,moderate,heavy).

Thanks for taking the time.

This will make your car steer somewhat like a mini cooper.

You will feel a more than moderate feel, a more stable sure footed feel of the steering while taking your favorite on ramp.

BTW its Andy, Andy R. lol.
It's important to know that the faster you get, the flaws about the car become more pronounced. Soft bushings, chassis flex, bump steer, tires, tire press, shocks, springs, driver input.

Is there any advantage with a lca bar with spherical bushings over a solid lca bar?

The only advantage is adjustability. Every car is different. A solid mounted bar will fit one car but not another. There has to be some kind of adjuatability for general use.
When I made my custom bar back in 98, I welded the bar to the crossmember and bolted it to the LCA mount.

The spherical bearings (heim joints) do not move when bolted down, I will have more pictures of the bar off the car and a short video of me tugging on it so you can see it doesnt move. The joints were used for adjustability and additional tension.

Making them solid is cheaper but we have run into too many cases where they dont fit every car.

If you guys perform some pull ups on the bar in the video I will buy one for sure. LOl

Haha every time I have my b13 up on the lift at work I bang out a few pull ups on the progress rear sway. Would be nice to have another option!

Lol. I did that with my rear sway bar the last time my car was on a lift. It was too tempting not to.
