As an example, i was having really hard pull to the right every time i got on the gas. The right rear of my sway bar had major preload on it. Everytime i got on the gas and the weight transfered to the rear and it squatted, my car would almost leave my lane and hit someone. The problem went away when i fixed it. If you understand how sway bars work it makes enough sense.
The tighter one end is, the faster it reacts because it is already lifting up the other side of the car. When that end(front or rear) of the car is loaded by braking or accelerating, the suspension compresses and makes the sway bars load up. The tighter end tries to lift up the loose end and the car will travel in the direction of the tighter end. When they are evenly loaded, then the force will cancel out i think i've got it right. just wait for one of the guru's to correct me
