I wonder what sway bar is best for Street use,as my old mopar bar is rusted and end links no good. I like to get a Great Street sway bar? Any idea's and also where is the best place to get one?
yea get the welfare bars. goto s&p development they have a whole kit for like 100 bux for both bars and new bushing. They are a HUGE diffrence over stock.

I would be absolutely terrified to street race with Hotchskis. Not sure if it's the just the bars, or the LCA bushings...but that seems like an accident waiting to happen at 100+ speeds

other than street racing being dangerous, why does it seem like an accident waiting to happen?
I would have to agree with the Hotchkis statement. Seems like it makes the car almost too responsive at high speeds. LOL. Also makes the ride bumpy as fuck.

The welfare bars are quite the same. If you're even considering driving at high speeds, your first and safest investment should be better wheels and tires. Upgrading sway bars does offer a great increase in handling prowess, but the cost is high with 6" wide wheels and 205 series tires. Even my 8" wide wheels are a bit daunting at higher speeds and I have the acr/pt welfare sways. I am going to be doing hotchkis soon enough, but i am also taking my car off the road almost completely and make it a dedicated track car, so it will always have uber sticky rubber. Also, if you plan to autox, keep in mind the welfare sways are nearly impossible to spot because they are factory OEM parts.

15 minutes after installing my Hotchskis I crashed my car and almost wrapped it around a tree
Bent the strut and all kinds of shit. Of course this is more of a testament as to how shitty of a driver I am, but they're pretty dangerous at high speeds. Shitload of understeer.

I got mine for a deal on titan motorsports

(ordered mine from Titan Motorsoprts also)
I've had the Hotchkis antisways/springs on my car for the last 80K miles. Along with Mopar tension struts, tokicos, tubular/heim-joint rear control arms, and Energy front LCA bushings.
The rear hotchkis bar end-link is set to the firm setting.
My daily commute is on mountain roads and the handling has been quite good in all conditions.
PROBLEMS can arise if the alignment isn't right, or the tires are under inflated.
FYI-
I'm set at zero toe front and back.
3/4 degree negative camber in the front, 1/2 degree negative camber in the back.
Tire PSI, 36 front, 34 back (215 40 17 tires/7" wide rims)
