Has anyone installed the Hellwig rear swaybar With the Roush exhaust that exits straight out the rear? The way the Roush tubing crosses in front of the rear diff. it looks as if there may be an clearance issue? I just purchased the sway bar , then watched the install video. Put the cart before the horse again. Any help?

 

Well , I did it. Recieved the sway bar today UPS, I dont think my wife saw me receive it. I waited till she left for work before I opened the box. I got the bar used , Told it was a month old. It looked pretty clean. All the parts were there. Partially assembled , and the threads wern't stripped. So I felt I could dive right in. Dropped the spare tire. and strarted assembly. I just used hand tools , I have the pneumatics and a compressor, but I prefer to assemble things manually. Preferablly not in the rain but I had no choice. Long story , Its in there , the problem spot is where the drivers side tube makes its last turn before exiting out the back. Its Too close ! The initial install was simple a 1/2 hour, the manipulating the exhaust and brackets to achieve the maximum ammount of clearance was at least an hour. I test drove it on my favorite twisty NH. backroad and I didnt hear anything tapping , rubbing or popping. And everything seems to be where I put it when I came home. Feels good . Ill need further evaluation. But Im most likely going to look into having an exhaust shop tweak a few of the bends to gain more clearance and improve the tailpipes departures. ( I never was completely satisfied with the tailpipes anyway) but I could live with it. Sorry so wordy, but thats me.

 

pics??

 

I havnt figured the whole picture thing out yet. I am not so good with the computer , but Im working on it. I would really like to be able to post some pics. of my truck.

 

if you have a photobucket account you can add them there then just copy and paste the IMG code and just paste it into the forums and they will show up. Thats how i do it im not sure how some of the other members here do it.
