The Hotchkis Sport Sway Bar Kit for Corvette C5 is a high-performance suspension upgrade designed to enhance cornering capabilities and chassis balance. Featuring a lightweight, durable 1.25-inch tubular steel front sway bar, this kit significantly improves handling by increasing stiffness and responsiveness, resulting in more precise steering and better vehicle control during aggressive driving. The adjustable rear sway bar, made from 1-inch tubular steel, offers multiple stiffness settings (+60%, +100%, +150%) to allow fine-tuning of suspension characteristics. This setup helps distribute weight more effectively during cornering, enabling earlier power application and improved overall stability. The inclusion of factory-style oil-impregnated rubber bushings ensures durability and smooth operation, making this kit suitable for both street and track use.
Designed specifically for Corvette C5 models, including Z06 and Z51 variants, this sway bar kit fits vehicles from 1997 to 2004. It is a direct bolt-on upgrade that enhances handling performance without requiring extensive modifications. The adjustable rear bar allows drivers to customize stiffness levels for optimal balance based on driving style or conditions. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved cornering and chassis response, this kit is suitable for street, track, or spirited driving. Installation involves replacing the factory sway bars with the included components, providing a straightforward upgrade that delivers noticeable improvements in vehicle dynamics and handling precision.

Additional Information
The hollow tube bars measure 1.25-inches in front and 1 -inches in the rear, and are 115% stiffer than stock Z51 in front and are adjustable from +60% to 150% stiffer in the rear. The result is dramatically improved cornering potential, chassis balance and steering response. Besides offering exceptional handling improvements for street driving, Hotchkis sway bars work extremely well in autocross, road course, and open road racing applications. The lightweight hollow sway bars are formed on a CNC machine, powder coated gloss black for durability and come with special high durometer dry lube impregnated rubber bushings. Stock end links are retained to maintain a quiet ride on the street. Thanks to added adjustability, the new Hotchkis C5 sway bar package reduces body roll, increases vehicle control, and adds a new level of driver feedback and control to any late-model Corvette, even razor-sharp Z06 and Z51 models.
