Not with the shipping price.

Just put it on the stiffest setting. I pushed my truck the other day to where the tires started protesting. Handling was very neutral. If it traction had broke it would have probably been the back end. Which is preferred IMHO.

I added the Hellwig (#7709) to my 2021 Limited. Took about an hour to install. Pissed I had to go buy an 18mm wrench as I assumed it would have not been metric. Over that now.

What a difference, I am extremely pleased and thanks for everyone else talking about this. The truck is fun to drive. Kind of shocked this is not a standard or option with Ram. For $300 ( ok I paid $282) well worth every penny. I think exhaust upgrade is next!

Oh, last comment, I called the dealer, they sent me to the accessories guy and he said $840 installed...I did not know to laugh or just wet myself on the spot. Gave me an idea on mark up.. just saying.

I learned that yesterday from a buddy. Tells you how much work I do on vehicles. Golf clubs yes, trucks and cars, not so much.

They wanted $840 to install a sway bar? What a bunch of dickheads

Are you guys using the middle setting? Installing mine this weekend

 

[Whoa_Ram]

I started on the middle setting and felt like it was a bit too much. Went to the softest setting and it was really good, but now I've settled on the middle setting. That seems to be the sweet spot.

I landed there after using the softest setting for a year or so. It’s just a bit rough on our poor roads, but it’s great in curves and turns.

Installed Hellwig 7709 today middle setting. Amazing upgrade. Feels much more solid around turns but perhaps a little harder over bumps but may be in my head.

When installing this trac bar, would you upgrade the drop links or keep the standard mopar links?

I thought about painting my red too but wasn't sure how it would look. I'll be removing it soon to do so haha. I just need to get my front hooks painted at the same time.

Just went with the middle based on the feedback of the group. Amazed at the difference. Borla Touring is next!

LOL... I was thinking of painting mine red, but the whole motif of this truck is grey or matte (ish) black. (Yeah, gotta delete the chrome plastic and get new wheels.)

Good to see what the swaybar looks like painted!

Have them powder coated to match.

yeah I need to remove my front hooks and at that time I'll remove the sway bar for a bit and get them both powder coated like fire engine red!
