Has anyone that posted here prior to this post about one sway bar or the other being better (IMO, IMHO) actually tried more than one type of sway bar on the same car??
Just wondering...

Maybe it's just the angle but I didn't see zerk's on the Eibachs. Hotchkis has right angled zerks, just turn the wheels and you can get them without even removing the undercover.

The instruction manual clearly states you have to remove the undertray.

You're right about the zerks. That's what I meant when I said it was easier to grease/regrease the hotchkis for whoever claimed it was an opinion. With no zerk fittings on the eibachs you would have to remove everything then reinstall it

ummm, no one with sways has experienced worn endlinks and clunking sounds after a few months of hard driving? when i had the Z it took a few track sessions but my endlinks were gone with hotchkis...maybe it's okay if just left under street driving?

I've had the hotchkis on for over 18 months and drive the car hard and have zero problems with any kind of worn endlinks

How does H&R compare to either Hotchkis or Eibach?

H&R's are not offered for the V36. Only for the older coupes IIRC.

H&r doesn't make sway bars for out cars I don't think. They make SPACERS though
