are hotchkis the only swaybars that knock?

Topic. So far all the complaints of popping/knocking/clunking swaybars are from hotchkis owners. Is this a flaw of the Hotchkis or do all swaybars have this problem?

Does anyone have a non hotchkis swaybar that causes popping/knocking/clunking when going over an inclination sideways(more stress on one wheel than the other)

I have had my hotchkis for 1.5 year no knocking noise.

No knocking noise here either. Just made sure to properly grease the bushings, and installed McMasters collars to keep it from moving

knocking is usually an indication of failing endlinks, which can happen on any aftermarket bar, as well as stock. Beefier endlinks will available soon froma couple of companies including SPL, theres an ongoing thread over on my350z.com about it
