Yes but does the hitch and bar use the same holes? Or?
I have a Curt Hitch already on the HHR 1LT.

The swaybar mounts to the lower side of the rear suspension. This is the rear
"swingarm" that cradles the rear springs. It moves up and down with suspension travel.


A trailer hitch is mounted to the stationary part of the unibody/framework. The trailer hitch mounting points won't be near the swaybar or it's mount point.

Finally got around to installing my TTR sway bar. I am looking forward to doing some driving tomorrow to see how it feels.

Nice! Don't forget about our engine-tranny mounts, along with many use the eibach front sway bar.
