Helwig rear sway bar
I purchased a Helwig rear sway bar to alleviate the famous wandering of my 06 6.0 EX. I started to install it and got as far as installing the lower shock brackets and new shock mount U bolts when I discovered I was missing the bolts for the links.
Last week I had the truck in for service and asked the dealer about the bar(whioh installs over the top of the diff), and they informed me the bar could break the speed sensor which is located at the top of the differential. A broken speed sensor will result in no shifting, no ABS, and other horrible occurances according to the dealer.
They said they could install it for me, and since they have a lift and I don't, I agreed. They said they moved it so it would not hit the sensor. As far as I know, the bar should be horizontal, and they mounted it so the front where the links attach to the bar and the frame are a couple of inches lower that the bar where it attaches to the lower shock mount.
First I must report, that the truck is MUCH MORE STABLE, especially towing my trailer.
Now my questions:
1. does anyone know about this?
2. Does anyone have experience using and installing the bar?
