I have the Mopar 0.96" T-bar on my Charger and Coronet. They have a good ride on the street. The Charger has the old KYB gas shocks, and PST sway bars, poly bushings, and stiffer rear springs. The ride is about like most new cars, maybe a bit on the firm side, but not harsh.
The Coronet Convertible (a bit heavier than the Charger) has the RCD Bilstein shocks, Mopar replacement HP rear springs, and stock R/T front sway bar. The car rides smoother, almost soft, most likely the difference in shocks and having rubber bushings. It could use larger sway bars in my opinion.
The 0.96" bar is not great for drag racing. If you want the front end to lift at the track, the smaller bars would be better. Also, I think the 0.96" bar is the largest that is still indexed Left and Right? I think the 1" and larger bars have the same index and can be used on either side of the car?
