Default Team z anti roll bar on street car

Thoughts? Plan on picking it up soon. Now i know people swear up and down u cant run i on the street but i know a guy locally that has ome om a fox and drives the car on the street all the time amd thats with the links bolted and attached as well. Im guessing if its a problem i can always unhook one of the links for street use

You will break it on a hard turn.

What constitutes a hard turn exactly, I def don't throw my cars into corners anyway. But leaving a link unbolted would alleviate that problem right?

I have heard of a few guys breaking them just pulling into parking lots at an angle on the "dip" in the entrance. I am planning on getting the UPR anti roll bar, but my car doesn't see alot of street use and if it does just disconnect one end.

Werd!

I would expect some pretty severe oversteer running one of them bad-boys on the street. Oversteer can get you in a hell of a lot of trouble REAL fast-like when you least expect it. Like when you have had it in for a week or so and "forget" about it when you go around any ol' corner and add a little bit too much go-go juice

Ehhh, I dunno about that alot of people bash UPR but alot of their products are widely used and supported, I know tons of people using their adjustable UCAs without and issues.

No... he did not hit a speed bump at a "crawl". UPR may not be the strongest item for your car, but hyperbole is a major reason why their reputation is in question.
