I agree that the LAD is good to keep, but at the begining of a corner, the outside shock will have higher pressure than the inside. As the corner progresses the pressure will equalize as fluid transfers through the connecting tube. This causes the handling to change through the corner.


>>Also, the LAD detects load using the center of the sway bar, so it is not activated by cornering loads.
