Hellwig 7800 is one a few from here run or get one from a tahoe with a lil custom work to mount it. I think belltech and/or djm make one too oh and addco too. Search the hellwig 7800 on here and some threads pop up.

Everyone that ive seen in here that installed one had nothin but positive things to say after installing for the most part. Especially on the gmt900

I have been searching as well and have not found anything that will fit with a stock 6.2 exhaust.

There not cheap by any meaning of the word, but you can obtain the mounts from UMI Performance. Besides being very well built, where they are coped out for the axle tube, they have teeth to grip the axle to keep them from slipping around. Of course if they were tack-welded it would be irrelevant.

So the ones that come with the Hellwig 7800 won't fit on the 14 bolt?

I have an addco unit headed my way. I plan to put a coat of some paint over the bare hardware also.

Default what a difference!

I just installed the Hellwig 7800 swaybar on my 2011 crew cab silverado and what a difference it made on cornering. I almost feel like I'm back in my 95 Corvette again in the corners.
