Shine rear swaybar dimension & metallurgical advice needed+(ATTN: Ron P.

[dan.bubb at gmail.com (Dan Bubb)]

Second try at submitting this.

I humbly disagree.
If the front suspension is solid and considering most of the weight is
on the front then as long as you are behind a line drawn from the
opposing front tire patch and the CG then the front will stay flat and
the rear will lift up levelly.
The softer the front suspension the more the car will tilt as you lift
it up jacking from the same point.
I can't imagine how chassis stiffness comes into it considering that,
relatively speaking, it's a hell of a lot stiffer than the suspension.
I think it this case you're simply seeing a stiff front suspension.

I somehow sense this is going to turn into a discussion. ;^)
