So I know it'* a very popular mod for f-bodys and others. But what would happen if I made some custome one'* for my H-body?
My dad said it would be overkill and ruin the handleing. I said it may work since it'* a floppy 20 year old car. What do you guys think? Im going to make a rear STB eventualy but Ill cross that bridge when I come to it

they work great for f-bodies because they're unibody and RWD, so hard launches tend to twist the frame, something you won't see with a FWD car.

it MAY or may not stiffen the frame up and help with handling, i'm not sure how rigid the H-bodies are from the factory.

Id say my bonneville seems stiffer than my moms 99 Monte carlo.
But I may be wrong. I personaly hate that car, even if it'* fun to drive.

the W-cars were built using a VERY stiff frame and relatively soft suspension components, but i can't speak for H-cars.

I may be wrong then, It proly needs new suspension all around.
My car does but for now it rides allright.
We have HORRIBLE roads In NWI so whenever I go over broken pavement it feels and sounds like the doors are rattleing in their frames (if that makes sense)
Unless it'* just the door pannel rattleing. (this is my car)
So i thought well maby the car is just so un-stiff that the doors are just gonna flop around,
Hopefully someone who knows H-bodys can put my fear to rest. lol
Also, If anyone else knows, How well do the first gen H bodys do in crashes?
the car SEEMS like a tank but Im not sure.

couldn't find vids on youtube, but this may help.
