07Softail's RCSB

07Softail · March 25, 2016

Just installed my rear Hellwig sway bar this afternoon after work, took 50 minutes and it really does work good. I installed it on the softest setting but I will set it in the middle tomorrow and see how that feels. It's def worth the $225 I paid. Tomorrow morning I will be installing my AR headers and then some data flogging for a tune adjustment.

Did you run into any problems at all with the Hellwig bar and your flip kit? I could not get a straight answer from them if there would be any interference on a lowered truck.

No problems at all but at a 5" rear drop the adjusters are screwed all of the way in and the bar is parallel which is whats needed. Any lower and you will have to shorten the female end of the adjuster. I did install in the middle hole but the ride is too chippy for me and will relocate to the softest setting. With the front Z60 bar and the hellwig rear it really handles tight and predictable, last week I took an interstate off ramp that had a tight left and right sweep in it and speed rated at 30 mph and I took it at 68 mph and the tires hung right in there with no squealing and the truck feeling very flat.

Update on my truck today... Several months ago I installed the AR Headers with the stock exhaust well today I installed Two Mufflers together to quite the non catted headers down a bit but still have a noticeable sound. This is what i used...two knock off magnaflow mufflers one 22" case, 14"case back to back and this setup really sounds good with a real deep bass tone. Here is a pic of the set up Total length is 4'

I'm not a fan of lowered RCSB, but I gotta admit your truck looks SHARP! Tastefully done!

Could you post a video clip of the new exhaust setup? How does it compare to the stock exhaust? Any raspiness? The reason am asking is because I have a 2014 Silverado with 6.2L, Whipple supercharger, and kooks 1 7/8" headers with ory, it's currently bolted to the stock 3.5" exhaust with an additional magnaflow resonator to quite it down a bit, but the raspiness is killing me.

Since I can't leave shit alone I cleaned up the crappy ports on my TVS1900 here are some pics for those who have never seen the inside of a blower. It probably won't make anymore power but efficiency should be raised a bit. BTW the cooling Brick is a small 15" x 5" x 2"

Do you have any rubbing issues anywhere with the 3/5? I have a 16 but im sticking with the 275/55 for now.

V-6 trucks use an 8.6-inch axle and V-8 models use a 9.5-inch one. Those who opt for the Max Trailering Package get a 9.75-inch axle with a 3.73:1 ratio. That package, however, isn't available with regular-cab trucks.

SO op did you ever figure out what rear end you have? I like the look of your truck a lot.
