Wife surprised me with some swaybars for Christmas

[MrMonte]

Wife surprised me with some Hellwig swaybars for Christmas. These are some beefy swaybars. I bought my 2018 Yukon Denali Ultimate 6 months ago & have put 16K miles on it already. It's a great ride but the handling thru the curvy backroads could use some help. I told her someday I would like to get better swaybars. I did order a Belltech spindle drop kit but haven't installed it yet.

I'm doing a restro-mod build on my 1973 Camaro so my focus had shifted abit. Looks like the Yukon will be getting some attention very soon.

You are a lucky man!

Those Hellwigs will make a world of difference on your truck's handling. Get prepared for virtually zero roll on curves. @OR VietVet and I are very happy with our Hellwig sway bars.

Get ready for the seat of the pants feel that will make you grin, ear to ear.

I swear I could feel the difference just sitting in the vehicle after installing the Hellwigs

I know what you mean. There are some undulations just pulling into my driveway. I could feel the difference going 20 mph in my neighborhood just going to grocery store. I can cut thru neighborhood and cross a higher speed street pulling across in to the grocery store parking lot and just that short trip and the pull in the driveway, I could feel it in my seat.

I don't feel it cuz I get thrown out of my seat.

Are they comfortable?

I don't recall if it was Recaros, but one of those popular big-name seat brands makes very OEM-ish seats. I know Recaro is OEM for a handful of cars, too.

Honestly, they'd probably be too firm for our vehicles and especially for long drives.

Might do better retrofitting factory sport car seats. I had leather G8 GT seats in my Xtreme. Pretty comfy and had decent bolsters- a lot more than what these have. Maybe some from an STS-V or CTS-V?
