Hotchkis Sport Sway Bars

I am looking at getting the Hotchkis Sport Sway Bars. I have seen the posts about the complete kit, but I am only interested in the Sway Bars. I don't want to lower my car or get stiffer springs so I am going with just the sway bars.

Anybody have any feedback positive or negative on just the sway bars?
Has anybody installed the sway bars and if so how long did it take?

I found two places on the net that are selling them for $330.99 Plus shipping. One of them will 2nd day air them to me in CA. for a total of $347.97 I am still searching for the best pricing and will post the sites with the best prices here.

Seems high...contact Tbryne http://www.tbyrnemotorsports.com/300Ccatalog.html

I didn't pay much more for the springs so he may be able to save you some cash. Well worth the upgrade.

Tbryne is selling them for $379.00 and hotchkis is selling them for $371.00. The $330.99 price is the best I have found so far. I listed the two sites that have them for 330.99 below. If somebody finds a better price please let us know.

Has anybody installed the hotchkis sway bars? I am wondering how difficult it would be. Any input would be appreciated.

I installed them, with air tools, 4 jack stands and a floor jack, it took me around 2 hours start to finish. The instructions are the best I've seen from a manufacture in sometime.

I hear they are getting $500 to install them with an alignment.

You should talk to Scott see if they will install them while they are doing your blower...

Springs, bars and alignment $350. $500 for just the bars? Wow, PT Barnum was right!

That is what the Hotchkis recommended installer is getting.

I believe Hotchkis recently had a year end sale. We do have a price match plus policy in case you find a lower advertised price -

If you find a current lower advertised price that we can verify we will meet it and also deduct 15% of the difference! This applies to most products that we carry and the price has to be something that anyone can view (e-mail and phone quotes don't apply). Just let us know about this just before or when you place your order. You can do that by sending us an e-mail with the direct link to the specific pricing. Discounts are not available if you find a lower price after you place your order and this can't be combined with any other discounts.

Thanks,
Tom
