Starting to plan out sway bar stuff. I think I found enough real estate in the rear for a 12" arm. Is there a calculator or anecdotal info as to diameter for our hobby? 7/8" seems to be a common size for race cars.

12" is very short unless your going to go to your link bars
no calculator too many variables. find a type of bar thats easy to source in a few different sizes so you can change if you want.
we run 49 spline 1.25" bars on all our cars, we have a stack different effective diamater bars also.

37.5" is the correct length. What do you use for bushings?
How long are the arms? 15"?

Solid season of trail duty, logging a dozen rock crawlin weekends along with other local cruise-ins, events, and ice cream, with no consequential damage or breakage to report. Needs some minor TLC over the hibernation period to be ready for 2020.

This buggy flat out works well. Always love seeing the lines it chooses on the trail.
