Ready to buy: Whiteline or Hotchkis Sway Bars?

bezzita

I got whiteline swaybars...., it improved my track time ...., BUT these bars does not have "lateral lock"...! The rear bar can move horizontally under heavy load.

My car spunt out 180o twice during tracks days in the 2nd and 3rd session.... and at that time I dont know why my car handle very very bad after the 1st session.....! Lucky my mechanic friend came along and found out the rear sway bars moved horizontally (does not sit in the middle anymore).

We tried putting steel clamps on... but it still can move.

We found out that Whiteline selling the "lateral lock" now. Whiteline KLL1_ _ Both Sway bar - alloy lateral lock ..., I will try installing them before the next track day..., let see if this can solve the problem....! I tried to get them but none of the vendors and even whiteline does not have them in stock

The good things about Hotckiss and probably other brands.., they got these lateral lock welded to the bar already.....! However, some people told me that if they got these welded to the bar..., they r gonna be the weakest point...., the bar will snap at the welded point..., is this true ?!?!?!
