Purchased a Addco rear anti sway bar for my TR250 about 5 years ago and have not yet installed it. However I would like to do so this spring. It has come to my attention that it must be matched it up to the front sway bar. The front one is a stock TR6 and I believe it's 5/8". The rear is 3/4". This combo can be dangerous? What would be the proper diameter bar to use?

It's not dangerous, and there really isn't a magical number for matching.

Installing a rear only swaybar will increase the tailhappyness of the car. It will feel appreciably better in the corners at lower loads. Becoming progressively oversteering as you increase the side loads. The car will be more sensitive to throttle applications with the rear only bar.
