    Does anyone have the Hellwig rear sway bar I have been looking at them. I like the fact that they have adjustable links for lifted trucks.

    I think I read around here somewhere that they are actually pretty nice. I think I even read that they may be thicker than the TRD sway bar.

    They have two models. Base model good for 0-2" lift and another for over 2" lift. I have the 0-2" lift, it was used and seemed really nice, but previous owner did not coat the threads with anything (paint or T9 would have been nice) so it is no longer adjustable. I think it is a bit thicker than the TRD one.

    Quality parts, great customer service, and they don't paint them red!

    You’ll like it. I had one on an old truck and it was a quality product.

    I had it but sold it before even mounting it. So I'm useless for this thread.

    Believe @1UPPER had his links extended at a shop since his Tundra is lifted pretty high and powder coated

    I think having the ability to extend them without having to weld and repowder coat them will definitely be a better option.

    Yes I had Ekstrom Designs also known as Coach-builder extend my sway bar links.
    They cut your side links and weld a larger steel tube over the original small link. You can re powder coat with the stock red color. Here’s a photo showing my extended end links on the far right after being powder coated.

    Well I got my Hellwig sway bar mounted and torqued down late last night. Drove the truck around 100 miles today and wow it made a big improvement IMO. I believe this is a great mod that I wish that I would have done a long time ago.
