Best aftermarket sway bar?
I'm looking to buy a sway bar for my 87 2wd silverado swb. It came with no sway bar from factory. Summit Racing sells sway bars from Belltech, Addco, and Hellwig. One brand better than the others? Any personal reviews?
Will these aftermarket sway bars bolt to my truck since it came with no factory sway bar? Or, must I also buy factory brackets to mount these? Truck is at stock height now. I am eventually going to give it a mild suspension drop, but for now, I want some better cornering! |

Always had good luck with the hellwig brand myself

My Blazer come with no factory sway bar and I know If there are two holes in the lower control arms thats where the sway bar installs. Even if it didn't come factory now Summit is where I where I get me parts and there are diffent bends in the sway bars I got an Addco and the bends were wrong so I have to send it back and get the right one.

I ordered the Addco one from Summit. Their computer lists the wrong one and it doesn't fit at all. They don't know which part number is the right one. I just had this happen to me about a month or two ago, so they probably did not fix the problem. I ended up with the Bell Tech one and it is much nicer anyway.

Thanks for the info on the Addco. After re-checking the summit website, Addco states that their sway bar only works on trucks with a factory sway bar already installed. With that information, their sway bar wouldn't have worked anyways.
I think the belltech one looks "cooler" than the hellwig, both are about the same price too. |
Re: Best aftermarket sway bar?
here a pic of my Bell Tech sway bar installed. I made my own mounts and welded them to the control arms, as opposed to drilling holes in the control arms like the directions say.... wouldn't have worked anyway with my tubulars, but you could do the same thing on some stockers.
