Hellwig Sway Bars

I have had the rear sway installed for ~ a year. It is in the middle setting. I like the ride improvement. I might try the softest setting to see how it compares. We do not have any rust issues because we don't have "winter". The few times it gets icy, they use sand.
 
Looking to purchase a rear sway bar for our 2023 but the Hellwig web site says 21-22. Assuming it’s all the same? Anyone suggest which model to purchase?
 
If you don't want to use some crusty u-bolts and can handle a drill buy the following:

Hellwig 7/8" Rear sway bar "7709" - ($254.42 amazon)
Core 4x4 endlinks "TWN-R-15-2009-EL2" for RAM with 3" lift - ($110.53 eBay)

So for around $365, you'll have a much cleaner install using the factory mounting location and beefer endlinks.
 
Smart. Didn’t know they are that crappy. My last one I think I ordered different links and drilled/tapped which wasn't fun.

Just drill out mounting location, don't tap it, you can place nut behind mounting location.

Does the bar with the 3" lift link sit flat ? or does it allow the rear ends of the bar to sit higher for a bit more clearance ? have you got a installed pic ? thank you very much

Guys going this route, we can do that bar for less than amazon all day long.

In the softest setting, it sits exactly a cunt hair higher.

Is anyone on here running the 7883 for a 2022?
 
Forgive me if this is an ignorant question, but does it help with stiffing the suspension for towing at all?
Maybe slightly, but not like air bags and a weight distributing hitch do. Now that I think about it, the weight distributing hitch works on the same principle as the sway bar, but in an orthogonal direction.

THIS^^^^^! Thanks for the incredibly helpful post, took your suggestions and this is a much better install, and saves money too.
 
Any ever try a 7793 ( 1" diameter bar) instead of the 7709 7/8 ? just wondering
You would need to add some extra parts on that as its meant to be a swap for a 1500 with a rear bar already.
 
Anyone know what size Core links to purchase with Geiser lift springs?
 
And something to mount it to the actual axle it self.
should go into the stock TRX location after drilling and tapping the mounts ? the 7709 fits with these or am I missing something ? it does show the "outer" u shaped bracket

Yes that is correct. Just most guys aren't willing to do that is all so didn't want anyone to be misled.
