Default cost for sway bars install

Hey all,

I think I'm purchasing the hotchkis sway bars #22101 this week. Curious what the install charge may run?

Also, I set my superchips to 91 and I did notice better performance - having a great time!

Thanks

Not sure about sway install cost, Iinstalled mine at home. The front is very easy to do. The reartakes a little longer. In total 1.5 to2 hours labor should get them installed.

any specs or contact on the bars you are talking about. how do they differ from the stock bars, and what performance change is expected.

rt vs performance is only 1/8", which does not seem like it would make much difference.

Any change in them will affect handling performance. Not only diameter but the material and manufacturing process can also make a difference. The smaller they are the less they will absorb on the flip side the larger they are the more they absorb. You will feel a big difference when cornering.

Prior to install go do some donuts, then do the same thing after the install. You will notice a big difference between them.

<edit> you will also notice adifference getting off the line. The rear isn't going to waffel and the torque is applied better where you want it, on the ground and not wasted in the suspension.
