Suspension & AxleTechnical discussions regarding alignment, stock and modified suspensions, lift kits, axles, hub conversions, gearing and steering.
This is a discussion thread titled "Rear stabilizer bar", within the Suspension & Axle forum, part of the Technical & Vehicle Assistance Forums category.
I have a 2003 Toyota Tundra Access Cab 4x4 limited.
What would a rear stabilizer do to the truck?
Thanks
Tom.
More stability on turns, better cornering.
More resistance to sway when towing.
Makes the truck feel "tighter" when driving
It is one of the best MODS for the $$$
You can't go wong by doing it.
Do a search and you'll see what I mean.

i also found less torque shift on acceleration/downshifting. i know, an open diff is supposed to spread the torque equally when both wheels have good grip, but i definitely felt a difference after the hellwig was installed.
only downside i see is less articulation of the rear suspension during serious 4 wheeling and the $180 impact on your wallet... ;-)
I got mine from JC Whitney as well, their 10% anything over $100 helped because it basically covered my shipping. It is a great investment, worth your money! Heck even my mom noticed it when she was driving around a sharp off ramp!!!!
