H&R Swaybar settings question...

Hi guys. I cannot remember off the top of my head right now, the "stiff" setting for the H&R sway bars the hole that's closest to the actual bar right? Smallest radius right? Not the hole that is further from the bar. Thanks for helping me on the brain fart

yes, the shorter the "lever", the greater the force needed.

So what was the general consensus for "optimal" stiff-handling ride? Is it stiff in the rear and

soft in the front? Vice-versa? Or stiff all the way around?

stiff in the rear for sure... I am unaware of the ratio between front and rear that provides

the best and most neutral suspension set up.

I have my rear bar at the firmest location. (I also have a slight staggard set up, 8.5 and 9.5 front to rear)
