Rear Sway Bar Hard To Find?

[JimHanus]

2013 Tahoe stock suspension. Looking for a stiffer rear sway bar than stock. I've found a couple but they seem excessively priced. Does anyone have a recommendation on a reasonably priced rear sway bar? Nothing fancy, just better handling. A few of the links I followed here didn't work (too old I guess). Thanks!

The typical go-to's are Hellwig or Eibach.

They are all expensive it seems. Rears always seem to cost more due to size I suppose. I have a hellwig and like it. I don't notice a huge difference when cornering without a trailer as the front desperately needs a bigger bar but when towing it really helps keep trailer sway away.

Does anyone have experience with Belltech sway bars?

I ordered Eibach straight from their site. It was pricey. But I highly recommend it. It's much bigger than the OEM bar. I also recommend getting front and rear at the same time to save on shipping costs, only if you ever plan on doing the front in the future. Just do em both and get it over with.

I ordered the Belltech, free shipping. I'll see how it goes.

I haven't used beltech bars on these trucks but their products are always spot on when I've purchased them for other cars. I'm sure you will be happy with it! A rear bar makes a huge difference when towing.

Got the Belltech installed. Perfect fit, works well.

Good to know. Do you feel a significant difference from stock?

It corners better, doesn't lean as much. I don't notice any difference in the ride quality. It was worth the money. Only problem I had installing was the holes in the supplied bushings were too small for the mounting bolts so I had to drill them out slightly. The bar is solid, not hollow, and weighs about 24lbs.
