Okay heres the deal I have a 94 camaro z28. I recently took the car in the shop to have a moser 9" installed with a heavy duty rear sway bar and a adj. torque arm. I noticed on the freeway the car wanted to start pulling to the side constantly. I had to keep holding the steering wheel tightley to prevent it from moving to the side. Also when I turned it was very response - Actaully to responsive. Does anybody know what might be the problem..
-- Front end alignment??? - The car used to pull a little before the rearend,sway bar, torque arm install but ever since those things were installed it's a little harder to controll. Or could it be because of the heavy duty rear sway bar and the front one being stock?? Not sure what size the rear sway bar is does anyone know how to measure those to find the size?

 

The pulling sounds like an alignment issue. What size is the rear sway bar? Increasing the diameter of the rear sway bar without the appropriate front sway bar will cause handling issues.

 

I would say that you defenetly need a 4-wheel alignment.

 

You said it pulled before... get the alignment. However, it's also possible the control arm brackets were not welded exactly right to the Moser axle, resulting in the rear being not perfectly perpendicular to the centerline of the car. Another possibility is IF the car has drop control arm brackets, one side is in the middle set of holes and one in lower. (Shorter on one side, same issue with axle not perpendicular to scenterline.

 

You should not get a larger rear bar without a corresponding larger front bar... and even with a larger front bar I've heard a number of folks say they chose to stay with the stock rear bar and had good results. Although that's not likely to be causing your pulling problem it's certainly not helping.

 

You need a larger front bar. If you went with a LARGE rear bar, I would recommend the solid 35mm front bar.

It also sounds like your alignment is off, as others said.

Complicating the problems with the heavy duty "drag race" rear sway bars like the Spohn or the Wolfe is the fact that they have adjustable endlinks that allow you to preload the sway bar to keep the car straight on launch. They are going to really screw up the handling for street driving.

 

When I bought that used moser rearend it came with a heavy duty spohn rear sway bar. That's basically the only reason why I have a bigger sway bar in the rear. It's defently bigger then the stock. The alignment could be the problem also. Because this handling is bad when I'm going straight. Sway bars are around corners and turns. The faster you go the more you have to fight with the steering wheel to keep it straight. It feels just like your hitting a big puddle of water and the steering wheel wants to turn on you quickly.
