Default a few question on sway bars

im thinking of getting hotchkis sway bars and i got a few questions:

how do sway bars feel like installed on ur tC?

can you feel a difference from stock sway bars?

was it hard to install? was it frustrating?

how long was the installation?

i have the TRD rear sway bar:

how do sway bars feel like installed on ur tC?
A- great, it helped the backs handling alot!

can you feel a difference from stock sway bars?
A- yes (rear bar)

was it hard to install? was it frustrating?
A- easy to take the stock out, little harder to get the TRD back in, i had a buddy stand on the outside of the car to ensure i didnt scratch the paint while getting it in the correct position

how long was the installation?
A- 1 hour

i know this is TRD, but it should still help

The rear bar is a piece of cake. The front on the other hand...

The Hotchkis Sways have 5 settings so you can adjust to the amount of stiffness you want. They definitely do make a difference. On the install, it's not a job for the inexperienced and you really need to read the directions and have the right equipment. You might make a search in the corner carvers section or take a look at the suspension threads on www.yoursciontc.com Hope that helps. Here's some info on our site that might help.
