Attached a pic showing the extreme difference in diameter between the stock sway bar and the new Hellwig, and a picture showing the additional clearance between the front tire and the wheel well. I was surprised that the Sumos picked up the front end as much as they did, however I expect as the rubber compresses over time the additional clearance will be very minimal.
I should receive the rear Hellwig sway bar Friday so I hope to install it this weekend.
Which front and rear Hellwig Sway Bars did you order (product #) .. presuming your Axis is on the E450 chassis ...
thank you
