There are those who believe the TR3 handles better with the front 
suspension firmer and the rear suspension left stock or maybe add inch 
longer rear shackles to allow more rear suspension travel before lifting 
a rear wheel.

There are those who believe that stiffening the rear leads to less 
predictable handling  whilst driving on the edge.

I personally would choose a front anti sway bar as the best single 
modification from stock followed VERY closely by an overdrive.  But both 
were factory options so I guess they would not be considered modifications.

Every wonder why factory competition options include a front anti sway 
bar, stiffer front springs but not a rear anti sway bar?
