About 13 years ago I was onboard of 2cv Super which had only rear stabiliazer assembled. It went really nicely into long corners at the speed of 120-130km/h. The owner of the car had plans to test it in airfield even in higher speed that will it start to lift the rear tyre in corner...Sadly the owner is nowdays "sailing in the better seas" so I never had change to ask that did he test it or not. In winter time he took the both ones always of because he said that the grip is better on snow in this way. I think he knew what he was talking about because he used to drive rally and ice track rally...even with 2cv.

I guess you are talking about Lauri Kivinen, what a legend!

Best to heed Etienne's advice,
since increasing rear roll stiffness too much can result in a car which is prone to 'snap oversteer'.

All good fun as long as you enjoy visiting the roadside scenery tail first... Wink

You need the two of them. Never never never use only the rear one. That would have a bad result at some point.

But anyway I will test this same idea in my own super. I had 2009 the front one in use but I didnīt like it. Back then I didnīt have the rear one at all. Basicly in theory it would make sense to put only the rear one because in front the heavy GS packet is keeping the central of gravity quite low but in the back there arenīt the same kind of mass keeping the back movement stable. So in this way it could fit well to the back because it will cut down the movement.

Future will show the results Wink
