MacPherson type strut suspensions are great for reducing ride height because it allows you to change caster and camber angle which usually strays a few degrees from the factory setting after lowering. If you have an extremely lowered vehicle, the default strut adjustment might not be enough to normalize your caster and camber. Hotchkis presented a solution to increase the range of a strut's adjustment by introducing a set of replacement lock plates for MacPherson strut assemblies.

The Hotchkis Strut Lock Plates are perfect direct swap replacements for standard top strut plates. This lock plate is made from high-grade materials for high strength and rigidity then finished for a durable and shiny look. This simple but ingenious add-on enhances your vehicle's high-speed stability while eliminating vehicle "wandering" to make your ride safer.

Founded by John Hotchkis in Santa Fe Springs, California during the late 1960s - a time when Americans fell in love with muscle cars. Hotchkis initially produced suspension systems that drastically improved the handling and cornering abilities of GM, Mopar, and Ford muscle cars even at extreme race speeds. The company's reputation in the performance racing market grew because they consistently produced cutting edge suspension systems made from high-quality materials that are engineered to perform and designed to be long-lasting. Even though Hotchkis started with vintage American muscle cars, the success of the company spilled over to other vehicles and they started producing custom suspension solutions for SUVs, convertibles, pickup trucks, and even station wagons. Today Hotchkis brings some of their top-shelf products to cater to popular imports.

With over 40 years of experience under their belt, John Hotchkis and the entire Hotchkis Sport Suspension team has fitted many of the fastest street cars in the country with precision suspension systems. Many professional racing teams rely on Hotchkis products to give them a winning advantage. In 2013, Hotchkis opened a second facility in North Carolina which allows them to perform in-house R&D and test different products on multiple vehicle types and models. Hotchkis products are proudly designed and made in America.
