Here's a couple of pics. I know I haven't touched the upper links yet, but I'm thinking about doing it in stages to test out all the possibilities. My question is if I could remove the panhard bar based on the angles of separation of my lower links:

And, for comparison sake, here's the stock setup using the same CG for an accurate comparison:

I thinking that I've gained 12 degrees less of oversteer, a 7" lower Roll Center (not good, right?), and a 13% increase in antisquat. What do you guys think?
