TIL that cockpit adjustable swaybars adjust arm deflection, instead of leverage.

...or maybe some do adjust via leverage? I dunno. But this one adjusts roll stiffness by adjusting arm deflection.

I have had all manner of car drivetrains with adjustable swaybars. I love how they really do make a difference. Once I heard of racecars with cockpit adjustable swaybars, I imagined all sorts of trick ways to do it, but can't imagine a feasible way to make it work. Every so often, this curiousity would hit me: How do cockpit adjustable swaybars work? How can you move the arm leverage easily enough but have it secure enough that it stays on the setting you put it? Most importantly, how to make it light?

It's just that I've never seen it in action, is why. So I just don't know how it's done. Sometimes I bolt upright in bed in a cold sweat wondering about this.

(not really)

Finally! Now I know. There's a crazy simplicity to it that I have never thought to imagine. Haha.

Going to sleep well now.

I thought they might work by adjusting leverage too when I first heard of it...pulling the link through different detents with a locking mechanism maybe. But nope, the only cockpit-adjustable sway bar adjustment mechanism I've seen is that rotating blade design. At least if you don't count the disconnect mechanism on some production 4x4s.
