[jlis]

Are you going to try just the rear end link or the front as well?

I really think the front hellwig bar is only a little bigger than stock. The rear is what makes all the difference.

I too was looking from some better end links for when I get a rear sway bar. I assume those hellwig links work for a stock height truck too?

they should depending on the length of the factory ones. you can adjust them to the same length.

The 8-11 ones will work. Plus, you can adjust them down to 8.5" for when you lower it, soon.

I spent some time laying under my truck and staring at my rear suspension and then I order the 6"- 8" adjustable end links from Hellwig (model #7960).

Yes, but if 8.5" is perfect 8" is a little short (that's what she said).

I was referring more to the difference in length (I know it's very slight) when we move the end links from soft to aggressive on the sway bar... When set to the most aggressive, the back of the sway bar would be pulled up and a longer end link would allow for it to adjust back to level.

Again, my mind is all on my audio so I could be wrong, maybe I should just **** and go install my subs!

My bad, I was ass backwards with my above statement. More aggressive would require an end link shorter than 8", less aggressive would require an end link longer than 8".

Who the **** wants less aggressive?! I ordered 6"- 8", lol!

I was under my truck yesterday and I was seeing on how the end links were set up and yeah the 6to8 are the ones so far. I am going to order mine too.

Is there any difference in the bushing between hellwig and energy suspension? Is one better than the other?

 

[Graygoose]

Did anyone try these, and are they quieter than the BT squeaky ones?

I'll let you know on Friday.

 

[BlkRamRt]

they both seem to use polyurethane bushings and the energy endlinks are shorter than the hellwigs.

I just got mine in, I bought the 8-11. It came unassembled so I'm sending it, the hellwig bar and brackets to be powder coated silver

Hey hey! That's gonna look great! Make sure and post some pics, please.

I am guessing you aren't lowered, hence the 8-11?

 

[DavidRam]

They're in!

These things are beefy. The sway bar is level to the road, I'm not talking level to the eyes, but level with a level.

 

[The Q]

The bushing in the Hellwig's look like they are urethane rather than rubber like the BellTech's.

On another note? Have you had any issues with your Spohn PanHard bar loosening up? Their instructions say it can loosen up and needs to be checked occasionally. I saw on one of the forums some mentioned using lock washers to help solve the problem.

 

[DavidRam]

The Hellwig bushings are definitely urethane.

No problems with the pan hard. But I probably over torqued them and also used Loctite, lol.

Btw, I love how they match the pan hard, and control arms!

Nice find man, thanks!
