Got my Hotchkis sway bars in the mail today and couldn't wait even a few hours to get them on.
Stock front sway bar is 15/16" thick, this Hotchkis bar is an 1 1/2" thick and its hollow so it actually weighs less than the stock one.
Handling is not even comparable, I can take the round-a-bout by my house a lot faster now
I've still got the rear sway bar and a set of Hotchkis leaf springs that I still have to put on.
The sad part is I figured out I'm gonna have to do a C-notch in the frame so my axle doesn't hit it. But I've already got all the stuff to do that, and I know a really really amazing welder so that's not really a problem. It's just trying to find the time to have him do it.
