Hell wig

[ayoslickxd]

k so im convinced on purchasing a hellwig but right now idk which hellwig to get the longer version or shorter ( i believe it has two sizes )... So i am geting rear springs which is between clayton and dobinson heavy duty spring im after a spring that would handle the most weight in the bed . since i am lifting rear i was looking if i needed to change my rear control arms or end links.
So far i was looking at the core 4x4

can anyone help me decide

I think you’re going to get both arguments on this, but I think the purpose of a sway bar is to remain level and take the sway out of the rear end. So will those springs lift the rear end at all? If it’s an inch or 2, I wouldn’t think it’s necessary. But you’re planning 2+”, you should probably replace them. It’s all about checking the level of the sway bar after the springs are on.

im checking out the core 4x4 as well. They are nice because the have the grease inserts for applying grease.

Which springs did you go with ? I’m looking hard at the Dobinson 2” lift and extra load ….

I have heard guys replacing the links because the aftermarket ones are thicker and stiffen up the rear end even more above and beyond the Hellwig swaybar

Hellwig? Hell, yeah!

I just added the Hellwig rear sway bar. Thanks to everyone who recommended it (and the links to the AAFES store). I used the Hellwig heavy duty end-links. I set the end-links to the middle hole in the sway bar. I've just driven about 20 minutes...and am amazed at the difference. What a...

The bar is the same regardless of part number. If you’re going to lift you will want the new end links to accommodate the extra height.
