Hellwig Sway Bar Purchase$$$$

[Snofire]

The Bank's units appears a bit "overkill" for most I think.

That is possibly true but they are all around the same price point. I'll have to weigh the options.

Both great choices!

Pedal commander is absolute must and #1 upgrade I love my JMS but I am sure there are many other good available. First 1.5 minute of this video from Sprint Booster will tell you you need to know

Threw mine on today and went for a spin...definitely a noticeable difference in the first turn. Pleased.

The only suggestion I’d make for the process after watching two install videos and reading the instructions...I’d loosen the end link bolts first before the bushings. I had to to put a bolt back in both bushings to get enough leverage to loosen the end link bolts. No way was I getting those loose with the bushings unattached.

That's what I did as it made more sense to me.

Maybe mine had been over tightened but there was ZERO chance I was getting them off otherwise lol

Well, that video is the best example of sour grapes that I've see in a long time, lol.

all I care about are first 1.5 minutes where they explain the functionality. I did not even watch the rest

Sorry if this is a noob question, but is the stock sway bar the same in 4x2 and 4x4? Will Hellwig #7709 fit both? Thanks much!

Says it will work for both on their website .

Made some offers to vendors on ebay last week, no one really seemed interested in dealing. Lowest counter I received was $7 off LOL. Received an email last night from one of those same vendors for $250, went ahead and pulled the trigger. I could have waited it out, but now that I have my new (heavier) wheels and tires on, I can see the benefit of a better swaybar

Ya I tried the same thing as they wouldn't budge at all. I got 1 online retailer with a price of $242 for but they were backed for 4-6 weeks. Got a different online retailer to price match it ($20 off) and it will be arriving today.

Just looked at Ebay and both of the sellers I tried to buy the Hellwig 7709 are now offering it for 250.45 or 253.14...Now they want to play the game.

Too bad mine just showed up tonight.

btw can you use 7709 with off road package (= 1inch lift I believe )

 

[Smashius]

You can.

Everyone seems to shy away from the 7883 though, and maybe it is overkill (?), but I'm really happy and it's not that big of a price difference.

Also, I'd prefer my truck be overkill

Yes, being ORP or non-ORP makes no difference
