we check all the wiring...after we put in the sway bar and went for a test drive the vcs and tcs was going haywire turning on and off plus the engine was stalling out here and there...we reset the ecu took it for a drive and everything as perfect shut off the car at my house and he left came back about 5 mins later everything started up agian...so we took out the front sway bar and put the stock one back in its place and no more problems....i taking a guess at this but is there differnet sensor in a automatic trans that will sense pressures differently than the manual setups if so i think thats the problem but like i said this is just a guess

I had no problems with the install. I used a lift for the job and the rear sway bar was tricky. I used a telascoping magnet to get the rear bolts to drop in. Th front was a _____ but i did it. I have had no problems with the Hotchkis TVS kit.

I can't get my front anti sway in.

Anyone here in HAwaii know how to do it?

or any of you have any tips?

I unbolted all the bolts on the subframe, but the sucker would not BUDGE one MM.

if I can't get it, I'm gonna pay someone to do it. :p
