Sway bars

Is Hellwig a good sway bar to install on my 283 Lexington. Also what type of shocks will work well?

I think all sway bars are about the same. Its a pretty simple component.

We have a 2012 Lexi 283ts.
Still running with the stock sway bars, and comfortable with them. Haven't found the need to change them. Nor have I felt the need for a rear track bar.
We tow a Subaru, run the air bags at 70 psi, and tires at 70 psi front and 75 psi rear.
Rig tracks stright and true with only a bit of sway when passed by a big rig.
However, did install a set of Bilstein's, front and rear. Much improved ride over the OE Ford shocks.
Also upgraded the steering damper to a Roadmaster set up. Got rid of a lot of the "loosey goosey" feel of the steering. Had front end alignment using adjustable camber bushings. Used specs that can be found here on the forum.
If you go with any type of suspension upgrade, I think that a good set of shocks, and a good front steering damper would be a good place to start.
