Different adjustable sway bar setting at each side

[inquirer]

If we have an adjustable sway bar, lets say with two different holes at each side, connecting the inner hole at one side and the outer hole at the other side, would have as a result:

• an intermediate stiffness setting with equal forces at both sides of the car or
• an uneven force at each side of the suspension that would lead to an unbalanced car behavior between left and right turns?

Both; an intermediate setting with uneven force: the total amount of force is determined by the average distance of the holes to the bar fulcrum but the angle of the droplink determines how much of that force is fed into the springs or bushes.

You are right about the end links.
So, in case adjustable end links are used and the effect of different angles gets eliminated then the first bullet is true.

In that case I guess using end links of different length mounted at the same hole at each side would make bullet 2 true?

So what's the point of adjusting the length of one end link in the following guide?

This is the correct order of operations for installing an adjustable-length end link:
1. Remove OEM end links.
2. Adjust new adjustable-length end links to match OEM end link length.
3. Install one new end link on one side of the car, tighten at suspension and at sway bar.
4. Install new end link on other side of the car, tighten only at suspension. Leave it loose from the sway bar.
5. Place vehicle on the ground with driver weight in car.
6. Adjust the length of the non-attached end link so it easily slips into sway bar without tension.
7. Tighten final end link portion to sway bar.
8. Win races.

Wouldn't that make the car behave differently during left and right turns or maybe pull to one side under barking?

You adjust one end link so the bar isn't under tension when stationary, which it always will be if you don't.
