Do you know if Hotchkis makes a kit for the AWD 300C?

The rear springs dropped right in ...could not believe it. With the rear cradle dropped down a couple of inches it was no problem putting them in and raising the cradle to install the bolts.

The issue with the rear end wanting to "jump out" when hitting a bump in a corner seams to be gone. I think this might postpone wheels and tires since I am extremely happy with the handling of the car.

I am not sure if Hotchkis makes springs for the AWD but if you give them a call they could probably let you know. They have been very helpful answering my questions over the phone.
