Our old Sponsored '01 R/T had a 2/2 drop with Quick Swaybars, Bilstein
Shocks, and the Roadmaster Suspension. Hookup, towing, and other
handling issues were dramatically improved. Highly recommend the
system.

Do you think it would benefit me on my 2/3 hotchkis dropped dak (drop
going on next weekend)? I autocross pretty regularly and was wondering
if maybe this would give me any help in the corners, or if it would have
any negative effects.... Anyone got any ideas? I've got a "stock" 34mm
front sway bar (stock is in quotes b/c nobody knows why my truck has
this bar on it, not even dodge, and boy was it a pain to get urethane
bushings for!) and a quickor 1" rear sway bar on the truck as well. I'm
looking at the Kenny Brown "X" brace next to stiffen up the chassis, but
if I can reap some benefits from the Roadmaster then I might just have
to go that route for now and postpone the "X" brace.
