Default Sway bar kit

I have a 07 LT3 and just recently I purchased a Hotchkis front and rear high performance sway Bar kit. I didn't like the feel of the ride it seemed the body had way too much roll in it. What a difference my truck handles like a sports car. Kit comes complete with poly bushings and all hardware. I purchased it from Tire Rack and it took about an hour to install. Just a little info for everyone, Thanks....

Great news, is your ride stock height/lowered/lifted?

I put a 2" leveling kit in the front and I would like to see anti roll improvement. I wonder if the kit is for "stock height" only?

Just received an email from Hotchkis saying they provide these kits for lifted trucks, you just have to specify what you have when ordering. It sounds like they will provide the longer end links in the front because of the lift.

I may be placing an order factory direct. It looks like they are a few bucks less than Tirerack.com ("Cut out the middle man")

I was looking into these for my Avalanche. If it only takes a few hours to install, I might have to hop on these.

Any issue with oversteer/understeer? When I upgraded the sway bars on my old WRX it made a big diff on over/understeer depending on how you set it up.
