I am assembling the front end of my V-0ne which has a blade style sway bar installed (two piece shaft, one end with ball the other shaft with socket. My Question:
Should the blade go vetical or horitontal. I think the manual shows it vertical (the two mahined sides of the shaft face forward and backward.

I would of thought the blade would of gone horizontal to enable flex. How the shaft is supposed to flex when the "blade" is vertcial beats me !
 
Not sure about the Kyosho but on the NTC3 blade front sway bar the position of the blade determines how "stiff" the sway bar is. Blade flat being verticle would be most stiff. Hope it helps
 
Jet, you are 100% correct. The more vertical the blade is, the stiffer it will be. The more horizontal, the less it will be. You have to find the "happy medium" where the car will react according to your preference.
