Please enlighten me! I'm running the Ground Control kit in my MK2 right now.
The rates I'm using are #375 front and #350 rear. Current sway setup is 28
solid in rear, stock (w/poly bushings) in front. I also have the H&H front bar
sitting in the garage (side note: it really doesn't fit well enough to
acomidate streed driving {read: front right and rear left off the ground on
some driveway ramps}). Currently my car is way too low to judge how everything
is working together but I'm still curious as to what you are running? TIA
