Haven't had time to test it too much but so far so good! Easy install too.

I'm running the fronts=softest and rears=middle. Someone mentioned that's where they ended up. The Hotchkis site instructions said set both front/rear at their stiffest settings! Nuts?! I'm on a 100% stock non-sport suspension/wheels/tires.

What settings have you guys settled on?

 

I did a poll with Stillen Sways and I believe most put their settings at Med for front & Rear. The next was Soft for Front and Med for Rear.

 

I have the stillen sways set at med/frt and med/rr. Car handles nice and flat(I have a caddy butt). My butt can not tolerate a harsh ride.

 

Here's the Hotchkis stiffness settings:

Stiffness settings for the front/rear sways: Front - Rate Increase over stock +9%,+32%,+63%
Rear - Increase over stock +54%,+92%,+146%

So I'm at +9% and +92% front/rear. I really want to up the front to +32% but I'll wait

 

It's hard to compare the Stillen units though. The review in the suspension section just says frt/rear adj from 7% to 75% or something. What medium actually is on the frt or rear is a mystery.

 

I am running M/M on the htochkiss bars and it really removes the understeer. They are great!!

 

Can you detail what settings you went though and the results? Thanks

 

We tried H/S but made things worse...Buick like...wallowed in corners. The M/M was the next though and I liked it,so I kept it. Nothing special about it...just what I feel makes driving better for my style.

 

Thanks, I'll have to just continue to get seat time on each setting and see what I like

 

NE1 else want to chime in?

 

Is there a DIY for the install?

 

Here is the pdf from the maker's site. Only thing I recommend is to ignore their intial setting recomendation.

But in reality, you don't need the instructions. It's pretty self evident when you get under the car.

 

when i had my hotchkis' bars on, they were on med/med, def a good place to set them, i wouldnt do stiff/stiff

 

I agree med setting was best. Best mod money I spent. I felt a big difference right away.

 

Looks like they want you to initially set up the car for understeer. Can you just buy the rear bar?
