been curious what I could do to improve towing/handling from a "bang for buck" perspective, and this write-up certainly answers the handling, which in turn supports the towing aspects.

considering you don't work for Hellwig, they would benefit greatly from using your well written, and well read assesment of their product. in all seriousness, they would do themselves no dis-service in offering a refund/discount to you for this write-up.

I was considering these bars, but I am disappointed to see how low to the ground the front of the rear bar rides. I can see where it could get hung up on obstacles.

Just make some quick disconnects and swing it up out of the way when heading out to go offroad unless you just mean in general.

RES4CUE,

I'm too old and broken for off roading. I was thinking in general.

Take Care

Ah, gotcha.
I guess time would tell if they would be an issue.

Haha, I'm probably just one of a thousand satisfied Hellwig customers.

I've learned a lot from other members on this forum, and this is one of the ways I can give back to the community.

TAP Auto does make an interesting offer (with mutual benefit).
