Slightly used Hotchkis sway bar set
 
Complete Hotckis F & R swaybar set with F&R end links - $525.00

The lowest retail price I have found for these items total to $642.00

Both front and rear slightly used - the chrome on the rear links has flaked a little bit - does not harm functionality and it won't be seen anyways.

I'll try to get up a picture later today.

So why do I want to sell?

In short, I want to put the money elsewhere where I feel I need it.

I bought the front w/links because I was running the local road tire classes in autox, and the I couldn't get on the power soon enough out of turns.

The bar made a significant improvement.

But then, I decided to go STX, so along with coilovers and aftermarket dampers, and I bought the rear sway and links. The car got a lot quicker (we brought it to a big event here and did very, very well). However, my co-driver (who knows what he is doing and who came aboard after I started buying stuff) rather tune the suspension through swapping springs and damper adjustments instead of changing sway bars. Also, he really wants a tune, but my budget is almost shot for the year, so sell the sway bars.

Are you going back to the stock sways?

Do you feel these sway bars made a noticeable difference? Did they stiffen things up too much?

I'm running these, great investment.

Sorry, I haven't checked on this thread in a while. They made a big difference. I didn't think they made the car too stiff, it had great turn in and I could get on the gas a lot earlier.

Swaybars are no longer for sale. Decided to use them for a while.
