Re: [T3] Traction bars?

Steven writes a whole bunch of good points, and I generally agree 
with the whole nine yards.

That said, some fifteen years ago I bought a set (front and rear) of 
bolt-on EMPI-branded anti-sway bars for the '71 Squareback I had. 
All of the other relevant suspension bits & wheels & tires were stock.

Boy howdy, it made that thing corner silly-fun.  Not good for 
comfort, probably increases stress and wear on other parts, and far 
from necessary.

But, wow, silly-fun.  (Not nearly as silly as the DDB Bucket, 
though.)  I can't bring myself to install them on the '69 Squareback, 
as it is the family car.  Maybe some day I'll put them into service 
again... you only live once, after all.
