Sway Bars

[Chieffreeze]

I was reading an earlier post that said their RHO swayed like a boat on curvy roads and when going over speed bumps at an angle. Another poster indicated there is no rear sway bar so that it doesn't interfere with the shocks doing their job. That didn't sound quite right to me but I don't know that much about this kind of stuff. My 2019 Laramie swayed horribly. I removed the factory bar and installed a rear Hellwig sway bar and the difference was night and day for the better. Is this something that might be an option for the RHO?

I’m sure you could do that to improve flat cornering, but it will stiffen up the ride a little and reduce the ability of the left and right sides of your rear suspension to articulate independently. The thicker the bar, the more both sides of your rear axle want to move up and down together.

That makes sense.

For the TRX Hellwig has a bolt on bar, I am assuming this will be the same fitment. I have them in stock just looking for a local truck to try it out on..was hoping to have one fitted to our trucks already but..no trucks lol

I wonder if the sway is still an issue in sport mode?

Sport mode significantly reduces the sway for my truck. I've created a custom mode, based heavily on sport, that I regularly use.

Hey Nick,
Thanks for the quick shipping on the Hellwig TRX rear sway bar kit. Installed the kit this evening and everything bolts up the same as the TRX. Doesn't get rid of all the body roll but helps tremendously, worth every penny... Thanks Again!

Thanks for sharing! How long did this take you to install?

It took my son and I around an hour in the dark. Pretty straight forward install if you are mechanically inclined.
