Let me know, I would be willing to reach out to Hellwig to explore the option.


Actually I will ask now....

@1stSFG @Yukon Joe

I have talked to Hellwig and they are interested in a group buy. I need to talk to a couple more people there to square away the details and minimum buy.

Stay tuned

Shucks. I already bought a used one. So you can't count me. But I really think this mod would go over well. Especially for those who are doing the GLRE Time Attack series. @Kanakry

I had one on my fx2 street truck that was Procharged and it was the best mod I did. That being said I am Leary about putting one of this design on my off road truck. I think it hangs down too low and would degrade how much and how fast the rear end could articulate. There are a couple company's that make off road rear sway at systems that I think would be a better option to modify and install.

I have to question your reasoning,

1) it's only a 3/4" bar with three settings for stiffness, regular rear sway bars start at 1 1/8" and go up from there.

2) the pumpkin and the lower rear shock mounts are lower by a least 2"+ than any part of the sway bar.

3) there are other companies but none make Raptor specific sway bars.

4) I'll let others chime in who off-road with the Hellwig on.

Installed my sway bar today!

I going to have to call them because like MTUH3 said the instruction are very vague as to how there are suppose to line up.
Also MTUH3 has the U-clamp brackets in a different area then the way I installed them, I installed mine closer the springs were as MTUH3 has them next to the diff.
When I call them tomorrow I'll find out the answers.

I'm going to try them at the softest setting this week and see how I like it.

View attachment 58462 View attachment 58463 Plenty of room for the new Diff cover!

As you can see in the pictures the bar sits below the axle quite a bit. I posted somewhere else but I think @svc was designing a off road sway bar wonder if they would chime in?

Really, and what sticks below the sway bar?

About 3 inches of the diff compared to the 36 inches of sway bar to Ge caught on. I was doing about 60 this weekend with basket ball sized rocks bouncing off my frame. So maybe it's not an issue for you but it is for me. it would be a wast because it would get destroyed. Simmer down.

I would be interested with a very good driver in a very similar setup truck one with and one without what the time difference would be during a time attack event (jumps, whoops etc) not a Rally X or how it feels on the street.
