Default Sway bars

Has anyone put on front and rear sway bars on their 05 Scion TC? I am looking to put a set on mine and was wondering how long it would take and if there was a short cut? Thanks for any info.

Well i have front and rear Hotchkis set to the firmest settings, but I can't really tell you any shortcuts.. as far as I know it's an intensive process.

I would think you would want to lower it first.. I would. That'll probably reduce the most bady roll it thats what your going for.

Yeah, what Keith said. You need to drop the subframe in order to get the front swaybar on. Afterwards the tC is almost perfect around the corners! :D I have done a couple already, not fun to install but worth it.

It good around corners but make sure you set it to the lowest setting in the rain... I lost control cuz I left it on what I use to auto x with.

Oh I could pick up a rear wheel coming off of just about any drive way... everyone behind me that knew me would always ask me what suspension I had... Hotchkis and Tein all the way baby!
