    The bolts that are needed are m10x1.5x65. You will need 2 of them. You can get them from the dealer with part # 06104428AA

      So is it normal for the driver side to slightly lean ?

    Hey bro, Thanks for all the things you are sharing about the TRX. I totally agree with you without the sway bar sharp turnings are not comfy and dangerous. I am gonna place the order now. 😊👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻Thank you again

      Just remember the '22's, Ram intentionally took the mounting bolts of the rear ends. Need to drill the holes now.

    Not sure if your Hellwig sway bar kit came with all the bolts or not but I just installed mine in my TRX and I didn't need to go get any bolts. It had everything in it for a complete hassle free install. 🤷‍♂️

    Hey Butter, I bought a Hellwig sway bar kit for my TRX but I can't install it. I can't install it because I don't know what I am doing, but the reason I can't install it is because my truck don't have the 2 vertical axle bolt holes with nuts on the left axle bracket. I have the 2 vertical holes with nuts on my right axle bracket but not on my left bracket. Have you ever heard of that?? I never saw another TRX that didn't have the bolt holes with nuts. I have pictures if you want to see. I also have pics of what looks like transport damage to that left rear shock.

    This is a great idea and a necessary mod IMHO. Did it help at all with towing? I am going to be towing a Travel Trailer that is about 6,100 pounds dry. Also, one Idea is maybe use the Quick Disconnects from the RAM 2500 end links vs the ones in the kit, that way when you want to off-road just pull two pins, move the sway bar out of the way, and now you have the full suspension travel again. Thanks for the vids! I will be doing the Mopar steps next and really appreciate your videos.

    • @ButterDaInsider
      @ButterDaInsider  3 роки тому

      Yeah quick pins could work. I wanted to try this out first since I was first to do so. As far as towing I towed a 4000 pound enclosed trailer and everything was steady. I got a easy and quick video for the Mopar steps. If you are cool with your salesman, they can add the code to get the button in your uconnect to be downloaded over the air saving you a $100.

    Butter! Great video! Just installed mine yesterday and fully agree! Completely changes the ride for the best! One question... It did not really take care of my lean... I still have about 1.25" lean. I installed the sway bar with about a 1/2 tank of gas. Made the sway bar level. Adjusted the end links. Tightened everything. Any thoughts?

    • @KMcBride151
      @KMcBride151 3 роки тому

    • @ButterDaInsider
      @ButterDaInsider  3 роки тому +1

      What I did was adjust both links down a couple turns to dial out the lean. Some will cry that I'm doing pre load on the suspension but that already happening from the factor with the truck weighing hundreds of pounds more on the driver side

    • @ButterDaInsider
      @ButterDaInsider  3 роки тому

      The TRX doesn't handle well so add the bar to help with it and to stop it from leaning. You only loose a couple inches of articulation but it can be easily be taken off in minutes if need to.
