Most comfortable riding

1. You can't fit a sway bar on the trucks fitted with factory air. I contacted Helwig and they have no plans at this time to develop one. The sway is a bit better than our 2004 ram 3500 with the same camper, but it would be nice to further reduce it. I might design my own.

I have the Hellwig Big Wig sway bar on my 2017 Ram w/ factory air assist. I had a 2014 SRW 3500 Ram that I put a Torklift Super Truss on and the HellWig bolted right up to that. I took the Super Truss and HellWig sway bar from that truck and had it installed on my new 2017' Ram. My new Ram rides so much better empty or loaded then my 2014' Ram did after all the suspension mods I made to carry the AF811. I made no mods to the suspension of the 2017' Ram except for the sway bar, the factory air assist really works nice in my case.

That's great news. When I asked Helwig tech support this is what they said:


Hi Greg, We do not currently have a rear sway bar that fits the Ram 3500 with the factory air suspension. The problem is that the factory air brackets go on top of the axle and move the hard brake lines down to the back side of the axle where our bar normally attaches. Both the brake lines and tabs interfere with our current mounting system and don’t leave any room to mount an aftermarket sway bar without starting from scratch. That application is not currently being worked on.

Would you be willing to take a couple pictures? If I read you right the original application for the swayer was for a 2004 Ram. Do you by any chance have that Hellwig part number?

Very encouraged that a sway bar situation has been worried out.
