Feets,
There are so many options for torsion bar and leaf springs on the market - how do you properly size the swaybars? Is there a formula or calculator etc that you used?

There are tons of formulas and calculators. What it comes down to is personal taste.
Some like big springs and small bars. Others like small springs and big bars. Others want big everything.
To race competitively, you have to calculate the roll rate of end end of the car using the suspension geometry and vehicle weight to determine the most effective bar for your combo.
That gets kinda messy so most places default to a bigger front bar than rear bar. The stiffer front suspension will make the car understeer when pushed. That is easier to control than a rear end trying to come around.
We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind.
