Lets go through your post a step at a time. I will omit the use of quote tags to save myself time and instead just use quotation marks for your "points". My rebuttal will be below:
"ok...where did u copy this off of?"
I didn't. I'm an engineer. When you spend years of your life explaining technical concepts to non-technical people (managers, vendors, family members, etc.) you learn how to make abstract concepts take shape in a concise and logical manner. I can do the same for other vehicular systems for you if you need help at a later date.
"first, it doesnt look like a d shape..."
Yes, it does look like a D shape, but since you are staring at your keyboard I'm not surprised it went over your head. Have you noticed that "C"-clamps don't look like the letter C? In fact, they are larger, and the letter C doesn't have a threaded component used to secure objects? Its a useful description, but not to be taken literally. The D shape comes from a long, straight section of material that is bent 90 degrees in the same direction at each end of the bar. Kind of like the right half of the letter D. Got it? Good.
"second it connects both of the A-arms, to the chassis"
OK. We have to step back to my earlier post. To avoid confusion as to who is saying what, I'll use quote tags for this one:
Aaron 4.6 said:
Its tied to each of the front
suspension halves (specifically, the A-
arms)
I bolded the word 'arms' so you would notice the plural form of the word arm.
Your statement as written a bit confusing, but I think I know what you mean. The purpose of the swaybar is NOT to tie the A-arms to the chassis, but it does do this after a fashion. Your statement is mostly repeating what I have already noted. Both A-arms are connection points for the bar end-links. Now you throw in the word chassis, but I am unsure if you mean the bar attaches to the chassis (it does, by the bushings in the middle- which has no impact on the intent of sway bar operation) or if (by extension) the A-arms are attached to the chassis (they are). I think you mean the former, as it bears on your later statement.
"so that if one A-arm, is pushing up, lets say in a really fast hard right turn, the swaybar, plants the left wheel, using the chassis' weight"
Jesus, man. Did you even read my post????? How did you miss this?
Aaron 4.6 said:
vertical links and bushings that impart force to the bar-ends during times of vertical
suspension travel. The bar resists motion only when the two ends are moving in opposite direction (as in during body roll in a corner
"removing a swaybar can take up to 2 tenths off of someone's 60' time(on a stock suspensioned car) because under hard acceleration, when car attempts to transfer the weight, it pulls the front end up, but with the sway bar, the front end is connected to the A-arms, which are in turn connected to the wheels, our cars do not have enough power to lift all of this, so the amount of front-rear weight transfer is negativly affected. hows that?"
Now we have something useful! Your explanation is not 100% on the money, but it does have some value. Removing the swaybar does NOT decouple the front end from the car. If it did, the wheels and tires would fall off! The front end is still connected by the A-arms and the struts to the chassis.
However, you do answer the question- because the sway bar is connected to the chassis at a couple of points using rubber bushings that prevent the bar from moving all over the place. Disconnecting the swaybar links will allow the front end to rise farther before trying to lift the weight of the wheels, brakes and tires. The
suspension will eventually run out of travel and have to be lifted anyway (assuming you have enough engine power), but removing the bar postpones this event to a later date. Excellent! That is exactly what we were trying to discover. It certainly answers the question of:
"I believe I read that just loosening it is enough to help with weight transfer. Sounds easy enough to do Can anyone say for sure? "
The answer should be "no", because unless the bar is completely uncoupled, the chassis will still try to lift the front end due to the bushings. NOW- this could all have been wrapped up in a tidy package a while back if:
a) you hadn't been a jerk-off about this and had simply provided the tech
b) see all of the above
