I have a set of dt profab adjustable links. Davidsram used them in his build on his rear away bar. I bought them too short for my needs. Dt profabs return process is non existent. I paid 200 bucks almost for these darn things. Would you be interested in them?

Very cool set-up man! Isn't it amazing how well these trucks handle with the good suspension?!

Are those the Moog front end links? If so be careful with them, they are way to weak for the Hellwig... I had a pair for a couple months and they started making noise and when I finally pulled them off they were bent.

Which length did you get??


OP, I highly recommend these rear end links ^^^, IF they are the right length that you would need for the settings you are running on the Hellwig. I searched everywhere for the best rear end links and these are the best out there that fit our trucks.

Yes , Moog F150 front sway links. Factory front sway , hellwig rear. Truck does handle VERY well !

samezee's!

FYI both sets of my Spohn arms after 2000km needed to be removed, and the del-sphere bushings needed to be tightened. Truck was clunking over bumps in the rear

Thanks for that info. I'll make sure to keep an eye on them.

I got the moog f150 end links, now you got me worried

It is nothing to worry about per say, just keep an eye on them. Mine were trashed rather quickly.

I got these for the front: https://www.cachassisworks.com/p-2817-billet-pivot-ball-endlinks-inline-472-center-of-travel.aspx

Imho, the problem is the Hellwig is so stiff and the bushings on the average end links are too soft, not to mention the strength of the end link itself. This causes a lot of movement in the upper part of the link which eventually ruins the bushings and goes to town on the bolt (first with metal on metal clanking sounds and eventually destroying the bolt).

I ran the Moog's for a few months and a couple thousand miles only. When I finally got tired of all the noise they made and removed them, the bushings were trashed and the bolt was bent! The noise they made was the bolt clanging against the Hellwig when I hit a bump or there was some articulation in the front suspension, like pulling into a driveway at an angle... Btw, this same issue would come up with oem end links too.

Last but not least, I did not want rubber bushings because of the deflection. I want as sharp and precise handling as I could get out of the suspension parts...

Daid those end links look awesome.... they look to be the perfect length for our lowered trucks. I'm ordering a set tonight, thanks for the info!

btw... what adjustable rear end links did you go with? TIA
