On my NAF chassis I have a rear cross member that my rear shocks attach to, aft of and above the rear axle.
I used a Speedway Engineering sway bar setup (“torsion bar” bar with aluminum arms) which I attached to the same rear cross member with the arms running forward and attached via links to the Ford 9 “ rear axle.
I sized the sway bar using standard sway bar calculations and ran a sway bar that is 75 to 80 % the stiffness of my front sway bar which is an MGB 7/8” sway bar.
Great handling with no body lean but does not make the car overly stiff. Depends on your spring rates of course.
Check out the pics in my Gallery.
Cheers
Greg
