Not trying to be a party pooper, but rather to set expectations: that rule's not going to change. It gets brought up by a couple of people every year, and is always dismissed. Adding more parts and adjustment allowances is not consistent with Stock's philosophy. Things have changed in the past decades, but were the Stock rules rewritten from scratch today, they would likely go the other way and remove all sway bar allowances altogether.
