It feels like it takes a long time for weight transfer. Obviously, the Saab is the heaviest of my stable. During the transition of left to right, it just feels like it doesn't want to go. Maybe we are the only ones experiencing this, please some feedback. My specs: 900t 215K miles, new (<15K miles) on Saab Roadhandling kit. Stock sway bars. I hope new bushings all around will help transitions. Eventhough the Saab a pain for medium speed transitions, it is a blast for high speed turns. Wait for it to set & it rockets thru the turns. -ray 73 Porsche 914 1.7L (Car in a box) 80 BMW 323i 8?
