    The blue fuselage is the sway bar.
    The blue rotator is set to 0 degrees which gives us torsion.
    the sway bar helps keep the wheels at the same height so there isn't very much body roll. This can be bad for offroad because it can limit the traction of the wheels. This i thought of. The sway bar can disconnect if you go off road.

    working on dampers next

    @MintLynx there’s an easier way. Cut the sway bar in half, Use a joystick base to connect the middle and modify the springiness. For solid axle there is a different approach. Check my build “serifica cruiser” for more insight. Without the sway bar it will basically be unusable. It’s top heavy so it will sway regardless.

    I could but it’s really just understanding how suspension works. @MintLynx

    Think at some point you could make a more detailed guide to building these? Might come in handy for an upcoming car I have in mind.

    @Sm10684 i overworked the rotators so that it stretches its connection without breaking

    Nice! Now I’m trying to figure out how to make a solid axle sway bar.@UltimatePlayer123

    Epic! i tried making a similar system using the locked rotators for resistance but couldnt get it right. Glad to see its possible.
