Hellwig anti-sway bar installed

This item makes a big difference in the overall lean of the truck when making any kind of turn and reacts very fast to left-right transitions (or right-left). I thought I was imagining things, but this sway bar really makes a difference. It took me about an hour and a half to install due to interruptions. No interference issues.

Here's a few more. I see no reason why the 05 covers will not work. As you can see it will clear the Banks exhaust.

That's fantastic.
That's just what I need to keep the XE grounded. I've found here in Jax.(FL) that speeds over 75mph on the Interstate mergers/ ramps are a little tricky. Need a little sticky.
Is that hellwig.com?

Could you take a measurement from the bottom of the diff cover (bolt and seal area) to the swaybar. I am wondering if there is going to be enough room to put the large PMLI cover in with the Hellwig.

I ordered my swaybar today. I am hoping it will clear the large dif cover.

Thanks for the pictures, it looks great!

Does that think lower the height of the vehicle? Have the PRG installed and can't afford any loss in the height department. I've got a 1/2" rake right now and don't want to lessen it. Thanks Head.

I too am wondering if there will be enough room for the PMLI cover. I am torn between the two now and am hoping that I can do them both. According to the PMLI diagram the cover extends 4.75 off of the center section (mounting surface). From your picture it looks like there is enough room, although it may be necessary to install the cover before the sway bar. If you (the head) could measure I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Hellwig Price

Guys if you look at the other Hellwig post, there is contact and pricing information in it.

Contact Nancy (Marketing Manager) Titan Talk Members are getting a price of $175 delivered to your door.

Its a great deal. You have to call, they dont have the information on their web sight, but the swaybar is available now.

MysecondNissan,

I am in the same boat my friend. I want to order the big diff cover next, and I am hoping it will fit.

It gets to within 4.25" on the left side of the bar as it curves in towards the axle housing. This is roughly right on the edge of the bolt pattern. It's about 5.5" to the bar as it goes around the rear cover.
