Sup guys,
I was wondering what the function was of the two holes on my rear S.T. Sway bar?
Which of the two holes should I connect my links ? Does it make a diff on which hole to use ?

Just wondering thanks

DEF

Ok so say when i take a hard left right.. well not hard.. but long.. like a circle off the highway.. if ya understand. And as im going.. The rer starts to go to the out side.. whats that


That would be called oversteer.

ok and when just the front plows to the outside.. ... The thing i get... def mostly when its wet.. but when im cornering.. The front seemd to plow...   


That is called understeer.

but what can i do to change..


The best way to reduce understeer is to reduce your speed going into the corner. The same could be said for oversteer in most circumstances. Too much steering input has usually been the culprit of oversteer for me, though it is admittedly in conjuction with too much speed into the corner.

But since you ask in reference to Sway Bars, SpedToe169 said earlier in this thread

A very basic guideline is: If the car oversteers, soften the rear bar. If it understeers, stiffen it.
