Frequently Asked Questions
Will this Hotchkis sway bar fit my exact vehicle?
Match the year, make, and model in the Fitment table, then confirm drive type, axle position, factory sway-bar equipment, ride height, chassis, wheelbase, exhaust routing, and every application note.
Does the sway bar kit include end links and mounting hardware?
Package contents vary by part number. Confirm whether the kit reuses factory end links or includes links, bushings, brackets, U-bolts, fasteners, and any required spacers.
Will a Hotchkis sway bar change ride quality?
A sway bar primarily changes roll resistance during cornering and transitions. Ride quality also depends on springs, shocks, tires, vehicle weight, bar adjustment, and road conditions.

This can reduce body roll and change how lateral load transfer is distributed between the front and rear axles.
