The sway bar reduces the amount of body roll/sway when turning and going over uneven roads and speed bumps. The stock bar is a hollow steel tube that flexes and soft rubber bushings. The Hellwig is a solid steel bar with firm polyurethane bushings. So the ride feels more stable and allows the shock absorbers to focus on dampening. Turning is more stable and the truck doesn’t keep rebounding side to side when going over uneven roads, driveways, speed bumps etc. just makes the driving experience much better. I really like it a lot.

Added black door emblems. Feels like a “R A M” again lol.

Picked up used Rebel wheels with 300 miles on them.

Dealer will be replacing my passenger window so once the part arrives I’ll swap the wheels.
