I purchased mine from a local speed shop. Energy Suspension Sway Bar
Mounts, End Link Bushings (modified), body mounts (old Mopar mounts work
great), shock bushings (front and rear), and replaced the factory Rear "Coat
Hanger" with a Helwig Sway Bar (comes with all urethane bushings).
I believe the Hotchkis is 30mm (or larger) on the front bar. The factory (at
least on mine) is 28mm. I looked at the Hotchkis bars for my truck as well
but couldn't see spending $500 for two bars and then abusing them on the
occasional offroad romp (even when disconnecting them). They are an
exceptional kit though from what i've read and heard.
