Thanks for all the responses on spring stiffness. As a couple of notes I
ran a rear sway bar on my tr3 and I thought it took a lot of the twitchyness
out of it. the car I am working on is a healey 3000 but not too much
unlike a TR (a bit HEAVIER). This thing rolls over like the Bismarck It has
a heavier front Bar and Springs. I am going to drive it with two added rear
leaves and see what I think. Most of you have said that the softer rear end
is the way to go but then why is it that when I push down on Paul Smock's
TR4 rear end the car stands up and slaps me in the face. I am sure he
could put a camper on the car it is so stiff. He also uses fairly light
sway bars. Anyway I'll write if I need my rear end picked out of the
Pueblo International Guard
rail..............................................Cheers Henry Morrison
