Thanks for the info. Knowledge is power. Keep the videos coming. For a guy who builds his own modified it’s nice to have guys like you who can help the little guy go just a little faster.
Just saw your video. Guess I'm confused about the right rear getting more traction and making the car tighter? If the right rear gets more traction isn't that pointing the nose of the car to infield then making the car looser? Good video!
Question for you, I am looking to do a right side frame mount panhard bar on my dirt late model. What height off the ground would you suggest the mount on the left axle and how much angle in the bar?
I know the Bob Pierce mods were always a straight bar. Depending on the angle, it will make the car roll more. These to me were always a looser in tighter off sort of thing.
@HoganTechnologiesLLC loose in tight off can be fast if you keep the car under you. The black and red car is a pierce copy and that's what I ran was a straight bar. Gonna switch from J bar to straight bar on my new car and try it out. Looking for that DIG
For the right side frame mount would you mount to the rearend on the pinion mount or the LR axel tube? If to the axel tube how long of a bar would you suggest?
It’s actually pretty complicated to measure the height, but measuring front and back and side to side is pretty easy. I should do a video showing how. If you measure your wheel base and width and then weigh your car, you can use the percentages to figure out laterally and front and back where it should be. The height is a bit more complicated. You need to weigh you car then raise the back and weigh it again. There is a formula to figure out the change.

Thank you for watching.

With roll steer, the RR should point in line or outside the RF. Pointing outside the RF will help the car turn and traction up.

We always mounted ours just off the left side bell, 2-3” below centerline and the right side frame mount 4-5” above that.
Thank you. Also is there any track (banked/flat) or (tacky/slick) that would work best with this application?
I haven’t seen it in years. It’s an old Rayburn setup. The side bite actually pulls hard into the RR spring. You’d need to experiment with it.
Whats your thoughts about running a straight bar instead of a J bar? Ump A mod. I know it's gonna plant the lr much more.

We always mounted on the tube up against the side bell edge. Make it as long as you can make it fit.
How do you determine center of gravity what should you measure from?
