cupidstoy is on a distinguished road.
Default Re: Installed my Hellwig today :)

there are several (many) threads on the effect of adding the sway bar to handling, performance, off road. do a search and you'll find lots of info.

basically, it helps on-road performance with a slight tendency to fishtail in the extreme and it hurts off-road performance at the extreme because you loose some rear end articulation.
