Rear sway bar will help with traction at the track and also cut down on wheel hop.The sway bar is crucial to have on the f bodies and if you don`t have one your traction will suck..Think of how the body twist when you launch..Well , the sway bar helps to equall the load out on the rear tires and maintain tration to both wheels..I think it would be a good mod for the truck and help with handling..Thinking of adding one to my truck too.

NO rear sway bar on this HD and I have the towing package too. I built custom ladder bars to take care of the traction problem but could use a little better cornering from a rear sway bar.. Don`t know what they have for the HD`s yet..

If you install the hellwig right it doesn't hang down in the back. Now their installation kit sucks but once you cut the connecting bars nothing hangs down and you can't see it from the rear unless you crawl under the truck.
