Late to the party, but...
if you do a Watts link with a moveable pivot, you can then alter the rear roll
center. Which will give you another balance tool IF your car is set up pretty neutrally.
It's not actually all that hard, and with no drive bits to dodge, it could be pretty
slick, as moving the center pivot could happen in the middle of the rear axle, and the
chassis points could be fixed. The lower point DOES have to hang down a bit.
But if your car handles with the 'safety oversteer' that Saab was SO
proud of right in the owner's manual, I'm not sure if you could do much by just moving
the rear roll center.
I WOULD bend in a couple of degrees of rear camber, tho, if you're running radials.
t
never tried to get FWD to handle.
Also wants to add the rear caliper handbrake,
so he can brake the fronts OR the rears OR both.
