Hellwig

Hellwig works on two things: how a vehicle leans and how it carries weight. Sway bars make up most of the range, followed by leaf spring parts, towing accessories and a small number of lift-related kits.

Start from the symptom. If the truck rolls and wallows in corners, in crosswinds or when a heavy load sits high in the bed, the answer is on the sway bar side. A sway bar ties the left and right sides of the suspension together, so the body leans less when one side is pushed down. Hellwig bars are listed per vehicle, and the range also covers the Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang, where the goal is flatter, more predictable cornering rather than load handling.

If the truck sits low at the back with a trailer hitched or the bed full, look at the leaf spring side. Hellwig spring parts work alongside the factory leaf springs, and fittings such as spring slings are listed by width, for example 1 3/4-inch or 2 1/2-inch, so check the width your application calls for. The towing accessories on this page are aimed at trucks that pull a trailer regularly.

Truck coverage centres on the Ford F-150, F-250 Super Duty and F-350 Super Duty, Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500 and Sierra 2500 HD, Dodge Ram 2500 and Dodge Ram 3500, and Toyota Tacoma. Each product page lists the years, makes and models it fits; use the vehicle selector to see only parts for your truck.
