Do Hotchkis Bars Make Noise ?
I currently have z06 bars, shocks and springs, and was thinking of substituting Hotchkis for the z06 sway bars (I can get good deal on them used) Will they make more noise than the z06 bars ? Thanks

Newer version don't come with the locking collar. It comes with newer type of bushing - non greasable but I guess the locking collar is great to have. Anyway, I don't have any noise problem from my Hotchkis Bars.

Right, but I think he said they were used (which of course doesn't mean they are the older style, but it is a possibility).
I'll also add that I had to put locking collars on the front bar as well; the damn thing kept shifting due to the non-factory bends Hotchkis chose. I'm not sure they ever "corrected" the front bar like they did the rear.
