Every car will respond differently to anti roll bars and each person has his/her preference on handling. The anti roll bar is on our project 335i with TC Kline Coil-over suspension with 400 lbs front and 500 lbs rear springs, camber plates and a Quaife differentail. Understeer and body-roll is reduced, and vehicle is more responsive. Basically, the same benefits Hotchkis has mentioned. Harold |

Thanks, I haven't climbed under the rear of the car (been under the front more than a few times ) to look at what is involved. Any hints or tips and does the kit include any instructions as they are not listed on Hotchkis's website?
Thanks again... |

Just wondering... how do these compare with the H&R Sway Bars that were released a long time ago?

The Hotchkis anti-roll bars are hollow, so if weight is a concern they are lighter. The bushings have zerk fitting for re-lubrication, so you dont haveto remore anything when the bushings get noisy. |

The balance btw front and rear sway resistance is different. The H&R rear bar is big, resulting in inside wheel lift and loss of traction. The Hotchkis system, particularly in combination with the Bilstein PSS9/10 coilovers and a LSD, will provide better control, traction, and turn-in. Camber plates and strut braces complete the picture (assuming you already have forged lightweight wheels and proper non-rft tires)...

Harold I have not seen stats on the weight of the Hotchkis vs. stock bars. Any chance you guys could weigh them?
Thanks!
