Carli Sway Control

Yesterday we outfitted one of the shop trucks with a custom rate adjustable sway-bar. First road tests are staggering... each of us taking turns in the driver's seat and every reaction was "no way"... what a difference. Increasing articulation by 30% and making the truck's manners pretty sweet.

You can actually get a sense that the front end of the truck is "detached" and the axle is allowed to do its job without undo movement of the chassis. Going into driveways at an angle... speed bumps while turning... offset terrain... you name it, the truck is completely different. I can't wait to get one on my truck. The last time I drove out of Mike's Sky Ranch on the trail to El Coyote, an hour and a half into the rock crawling and tight trail journey, I simply had to stop. The amount of "rocking" back and forth from side to side was enough to ring my bell a couple times with the seat belt clasp on the pillar and I conceded for a beer stop. As soon as mine is mounted, I'm planning to hit Baja's nasty terrain and feel for myself what really happens with a superior sway bar design and torsion rate.
