Hellwig 7735 rear sway bar install

Nice write up.

 

I have 3" blocks in the rear with Bilstein 5100.

Interested if this will fit?

I dont think it will fit with 3" blocks as this would increase the distance between the axle and the tubular cross member by about 2". There is not enough thread in the endlink to extend it by any amount. If you were to lower the truck by removing the spacer it would be fine.

Why not call the manufacture and ask? they might offer longer threaded section for lifted trucks if not I am sure Fastenal can make or get you what you need. You be surprised what they can do and how many company's use Fastenal products to fasten theirs.

I looked on their website and it appears that you can get a kit with longer endlinks, I believe it is #7886. Check the online catalog or phone them.

Sorry to resurrect a dead thread. But all I saw. 

 

I have a 2017 RCSB 4x4 that is lowered 4/6 so the rear axle is flipped. (yeah I know I lowered a 4x4)

 

Will this work? also any point on getting the front sway-bar as well?

Flipped? I don't see why it would not  it bolts to the Axle housing....just use a different diff cover bolt hole for the brake line hanger.  As for the front sway bar....Well I am just tickled pink after I installed that!  Made my Electric Power steering feel 50% tighter and closer to the old schools power steering feel instead of the super light can't feel the road drive real sloppy FERD type steering.......arhggg I hate FERD'S

[ac66bronco]

Yes the Springs are now attached to the rear axle UNDER the tubes instead of OVER from the factory. I call it flipped lol. 

 

Thanks for the info! Much appreciated!

Will the front and rear sways work with zone lifts ? I have a 6.5 zone lift and would like to upgrade the sway bars

Let's resurrect this old thread ...

 

Installed the 7735 rear sway bar on my 2014 2wd Silverado on 4/6 drop .

 

Sway bar installed fine and works great .

 

I can not get the spare tire back in place , there is no room for it now .

 

Anyone else with a lowered truck have this issue ?

Its been 6 years with the 7735 installed on my truck and I've driven about 2500KM. I wash the underside annually and the rest of the truck is starting to show the normal GM rust on the frame rails and axle housings. I'm pretty disappointed in what the Helwig looks like. All of the coatings on the sway bar and brackets as well as endlinks is totally rusted and flaked off. For what I paid for this sway bar I would have expected much better quality.
