We have TONS of potholes and crap here. Buffalo sucks for road conditions, and we have had our testers each run about 2-3K miles DD each

 

I guess I just want some people with the hotchkis sway bar on the stiffest setting to chime in.

Don't get me wrong, i'll eventually get it. I would just feel better if I knew other people with the same sway bar as me had success with it.

I think hotchkis has the stiffest setting compared to other sway bars out there. I might be wrong though, I don't know if any new ones have come out that are stiffer.

As far as I can tell, and have read. Its usually trd/hotchkis the one that have had the problems. But, it might be an installation error.

Any hotchkis people wanna chime in?????

 

check my new custom spacer. the od of the spacer is the same as the ball in the heim and it's made of ss

 

*drool* teinnnnnnnnnn.

I'll probably get teins on my Z.

Where'd you get those? How many did you need? And why are they 2 different colors, lol.

 

the one made from ss are made by me and the yellow ones are regular washers from ace hardware store.
Now the whole tension is going to the ball in the heim and it should hold up to 9500 pounds so i think it's should hold

 

The endlinks depicted there should be perfect for hours of hard driving. The installation seems spot on and nice spacer job on our endlinks!

 

i got these endlinks just so i can have something stronger then stock, im not going to auto x, so do u think i should put them on with my trd sway bar, or should i just stay on with the stock ones since my car is for daily driving?

 

You can use ours with ANY bar out there. Choice is yours.

 

Just installed my rear hotchkis sway over the weekend and didnt like the way the stock endlinks lined up. havent installed the front as i didnt have enough time and heard its a real PITA.

i tried reading all of the post but i had to skim most of it as i am at work.

just wondering if the setup for the hotchkis has been fine-tuned and will i need to buy a set for the front? this is a DD.

you have a lot of good rep on here so i have only looked into your setup.

let me know, thanks

 

Rears will work 100% fine and fronts as well as they are 100% adjustable height and angle wise.

 

cool. so what would be the financial damage for both?

 

$168 delivered. In stock on both

 

i hope my stock endlinks hold up until i can gather some funds. i think im going to have to wait a month or two to get them, getting married in less than a month.

im trying to make myself stop buying stuff for the car but its too hard to stop.

I will let you know once i have some spending $

 

Thanks for all of the recent orders party people

 

im gonna order a set after i detail my next car...

 

FINALLY installed... had to get the passenger one cut off (good thing I know people).

PICS!







Will really "test" them this weekend at our last autox event.

 

Lookin good!

You used a ton more spacers than I did

 

I was trying to keep the link vertical but still have enough left on the end for the nut to grab on to. I would have liked to make the links longer too - but they went in easiest that way and the bolt is perpendicular to the mounting surface of the bar.

 

That makes sense. Mine are the same length as the stock endlink, so I don't think I needed as many spacers.

 

Will I need any spacers for the trd sway bar?
