Hi guys. I was looking for it at AAFES and I couldn’t find it. Are you guys buying it from a specialty store?

No you have to specifically use the AAFES P
parts store. It was hard to get to. I used 2 laptops and I couldn't get to it. Finally got the page to come up using a Samsung phone with Chrome browser. https://www.shopmyexchange.com/exchange-auto-parts-store/8039841

On my computers it would redirect me to their main page. Hope this helps.

Awesome, thank you. Is currently out of stock so let the waiting games begin.

Mine came in today. Installed it in about an hour working slowly and answering phone calls. I put it on the middle setting. I notice a little difference buy not as much as I anticipated so I may move it in to the closest hole. Has anyone used the firmest setting yet? Thoughts?

I experienced same. Firmest setting is only way to go for me. Drives flat in corners, turns, and lane changes like a sports car without wallow, rolling, and bouncing of a normal truck. Pretty amazing.

The nuts that hold the drop link onto the sway bar, anyone know what size that is? I used a 3/4" but that was a little loose and when I tried a 17MM and 19MM neither fit so my "guess" is its an 18MM.
Thoughts?

if purchasing these for a limited w/ ORP and daystar + revel links do you go with the base model or one with adjustable bushings?

It's an 18 mm

Thanks Amazing93....that is what I thought. Not a common size either.

Good to have, the rear seat bolts are 18mm as well

I used a gear wrench. Made it way easier than an open ended wrench.

Update to this:

I'm an idiot and for some reason I thought it was the stock bushing/bracket that fell off when it was actually the Hellwig bracket that fell off! Spoke to Hellwig and they're sending me a replacement for free! Great service!

Front and rear needed, or just rear?

Just rear.

Question regarding proper installation with a Ram 1500 with adjustable air ride and a 5” Rough Country lift. I will buy the Hellwig 7883 with adjustable end links. At what ride height should the links be adjusted? I understand that the bar ends should be adjusted to be parallel to the ground, but should they be parallel in Off Road 2 (highest ride setting) or in the Normal setting?

I would think it should be level in normal setting but I would contact hellwig and see what they say.
