Progress Tech Rear Bar
 
I have searched and have not heard anything about this concern that I have with the fitment of the PT Rear bar at the end Links. Using the stock end links,with the softest setting, the bar faces up about 20-30 degrees and and the links face forward about 30 degrees. My understanding is that the bar should be as close to horizontal and the links as close to vertical as possible. The way these look appear to be unable to transmit any force quickly and efficiently. Do I understand this correctly?

I built my own links with a male and female heim joints to get me down to a distance of 2 1/2" center to center which improves the angles when adjusted to a minimum, but is still not ideal. Racing beat end links are 3 1/2" center to center, I think and I was not able to get an answer on the AWR links.

Anybody else have this problem and if so, how did you correct it? Seems to me that the PT bar is not bent quite right and is a little too long on the ends.

TIA
