Sway Bars and Steering Stabilizer installation completed
After a few ordeals I have finished the sway bar and steering stabilizer installation. Ordeals were the other model sway bars back (Roadmaster) back ordered about 2 months, delayed our install. Once the right units were found (the Hellwig models mentioned here) delivery happened in 3-5 days. Installed on 2019 Thor Vegas 25.5 in just one day.
The trip from Kentucky to California in May proved these are of much benefit. We had all kinds of weather from simple rain to monsoons, hail, ice, healthy winds, big trucks blowing us around, a lot of white knuckle driving and snow in South Dakota in later May. It convinced us to get these installed.
A Hellwig front sway bar, A Hellwig rear sway bar and a Safe-T-Plus steering stabilizer. So if you need the factory sway bars and steering unit I have----no charge but shipping.
Installation was reasonably straight forward. The difficult part was the front sway bar mounting bolts being tough to remove. You need an 18mm socket for the front bolt and a 15mm socket for the rear. Both bolts require a lot of force/strength to get out. Apparently lock tite used to put them in. I had to use a 3/8 ratchet with 12 inch cheater bar (a one inch pipe) to finally remove the front bolts.
Can be completed in about 4-6 hours and then do road test.
