Installed my Tundra Hellwig anti-sway bar

It took me a few hours, mainly because I was interrupted a few times.

took it for a test drive, all I can say is WOW. It's a night and day difference turning with the sway bar, it, ummm, doesn't sway anymore

Definitely a recommended mod for those of you with Tundra's or anyone with a truck.


What a productive day, finished my muth signal mirrors and installed the Hellwig

You can probably see in the pictures that it is a little off center, I'll have to go back under there tonight and see what I can do

Install was really easy, I was kinda worried about it because I am better at doing electrical stuff than I am doing mechanical stuff on the truck, or should I say I feel more comfortable and enjoy doing electrical stuff.

Key thing is to go through it slowly, take your time, and keep an eye on things for a couple days (tightening bolts, checking alignment of the bar)

There is a write-up that I followed from TundraSolutions.com, that thing was a lifesaver, I had my laptop plugged in my truck and every couple minutes would refer back to that.

Is hellwig the only option for a rear swaybar on the tundras? I don't like how it hangs below the axle with those long thread studs just asking to get bent and never be able to remove it.

Nice mod. That's one of my plans for the truck.
