A long time ago on this forum, it was recommended that hotchkis be used for modded suspensions and stillens when you keep the stock suspension... this is my recollection. Correct me if I'm wrong?
But if this theory is true?? Is the OP is running hotchkis on stock suspension? Wouldn't this be a valid reason for his lack of enthusiasm toward the hotchkis?? Just an observation and nothing more.
