I ordered the Hellwig bar today from Mark Savitske. Granted, I could have gotten it cheaper elsewhere, but, considering he pretty much designed it, I decided to be a return customer. It'll go on when the 8.5 goes in.

Mark designed the Spohn Pro-Touring bar. The Spohn bar preceded all the other brands. I remember him talking about having it in the works 4 or 5 years ago (maybe longer).
That isn't a design so-much-as an adaptation of a concept (axle & chassis mounted). The design at it's purest has existed since at least 1982 on production GM vehicles (Camaro & Firebird); however, I can't speak for its truest origin.
I can see giving some credibility for the adjustability/rate adjustment but that is about it.
No, it's not a completely new idea, but there was still very much time getting the correct widths for bends and mounting points as well as figuring out how long to make the lever arms to create just the right rate (or rates in the case) of stiffness. There is also the decision as to how thick the bar should be. I'd say that there was plenty of designing involved.
Whats the next best upgrade from the stock rear sway bar.Any info would be great.
thanx joe
what years were those last gen s10 blazers?...i think i am gonna hit the boneyard to get one..not to hijack the thread but, what vehicle is compatible for a good performance front sway bar from as well?
12.10 to 11.74 just with the bar change? It appeared to have a better 60 ft.What was old 60 and the new 60 and what was the old and new 1/8mile ET & MPH?
What hole are you in?
