Well after installing my new sway bar I contacted Hellwig for a return shipping label for the old one but they told me to just keep it.

I decided to scrub it down with hot water and a scotch brite pad. Too my surprise all the rust came off right down to the original finish and looks almost new again. A good coat of quality paint which will better than the factory finish and it will be perfectly fine to use again. I’ll likely list it in the classifieds as I don’t need a spare.
