    I don't think they will work. I don't see how they can since the attachment points are unchanged. Usually, adjustable stiffness is achieved by using different mounting points on the bar itself; making the bar shorter makes it stiffer.

      Yeah, I don't see how those would affect any rate change at the swaybar... you're not altering the point on the lever you are pushing, hence the rate at the bar will stay the same.

      Now, if the bracket with two holes bolts to the control arm then you will be altering the motion ratio between the control arm and swaybar very slightly, accomplishing a small rate change in the end.

      For a control arm as long as ours in the rear, something like that would be useless. For the front, MAYBE you would notice a difference.

        I knew all those engineering courses would come in handy for something.

          that's how it's supposed to work.... and I've seen some for the rears with 3 positions for around 110$ but due to space you have some trimming and welding to do on our cars
