Jack,
Just so you know..I learn something from everyone of you guys, and I know Don does too! Hell, I can't take credit for 80% of the stuff I post here! Maybe we've refined some ideas, maybe even modified them a little, but it's all from the entire CR's famly!

My columns, only supported by the stock straps are tight, very tight, but...if you put some effort into moving the wheel around, you can still get a little wobble where they go through the firewall.

You have just given me a great idea that I have been wrestling with for years. We make a very simple bracket that mounts to the column and then to the firewall, but it looks homemade and I don't like it, even though it totally eliminates wobble. Now I know exactly what to have made up!

I'll keep you posted, I'm headed to the drawing board...litterally!

DV -- 300 Cobras are NOT enough! Register - you're running out of time!

P.s. When we were doing the skid pad testing, with both sway bars, at .78 G's the sidepipes were less than a 1/2" off the ground. Now, pulling an honest 1.27 G's the lean is noticeable, but barely!
