Belltech, Eibach, Hellwig---why should I run their sway bar?

[08HoeCD]

Heh, from the guy who started the No Need to Modify" thread!! Welcome to the dark side!!

I'm running Eibach front and rear with a 2/3 drop. Love the handling!!

LOLOL!

Yup, color me GUILTY!

Thats what happens when you hang out here!

Yeah---this place makes people do things against their will.

Resistance is futile.

What exactly are you gaining from a sway bar? Are you applying to front and rear? What are the differences. Thanks. I have a 2" lowered 2007 Denali.

They are actually ANTI-swaybars but they're always shortened to just swaybar. They do just that-keep your rig from swaying so much while cornering, and also they help to decrease "nose-dive" when braking hard. So their purpose is to keep your rig as flat as possible during hard cornering or braking. And yes, it's best to upgrade both front and rear. (There are stock ones on already but they're small)

Thanks Red Rocket for the explanation. Makes total sense now that I think about it.

Good post! I will have to check out Hellwigs. Are these pretty easy to install?

Easy. There's a thread on here with a write-up and pictures. You'll have to search for it; might be in the tech section, 2000-2006 models but it's the same for these years.

I steered you wrong, it was in the Street suspension section:
