Default help not sure about anti-roll

i have a 96 wagon and am looking at anti-roll bars and drop links. i want to lose the under stear but still be able to get a bit of overstear. so if i put a thicker anti-roll bar and drop links on the front will i lose understeer and still have some oversteer or is it the other way round?

thanks

As you have a classic not a heavier newage car, I'd be a little careful about a 24mm rear bar.

Easiest way to start is to get a Whiteline adjustable 22mm rear ARB.

I have and would certainly say a 22 front and a 22 rear will do all you need in a classic, inc oversteer (but not 'Mk 2 Escort')
