Hi! Sort of, but not in the way you might be thinking. They are not adjustable-length end links like you might see on some performance suspensions. Instead, the part # HE22GR comes with fixed-length end links that can be mounted in one of three holes on the sway bar arms. By moving the end links to a different hole, you change the leverage on the sway bar, allowing you to make the suspension firmer or softer to match your driving preferences.

This sway bar is designed to fit 2016 through 2022 Ford Transit T150, T250, and T350 models. Hellwig is one of the most trusted names in the industry. Their sway bars are known for making vans feel much more stable in corners, crosswinds, and when carrying heavier loads, all without making the ride harsh.

Are you looking to improve the handling of your Transit for everyday driving, or is it built out as a camper or work van?

@SteveD Hey you are welcome Steve and good morning. That sounds like an awesome setup! A fully built out high roof at 9,600 pounds is exactly the kind of van that benefits from a rear sway bar. I think you'll really notice the difference. It should feel a lot more planted in corners and crosswinds, and just be more relaxing to drive overall. I'd love to see a picture of your build!

The links are adjusting in that they have threaded links on the rods going up to the frame. This is used to get it set incase you drill a frame hole higher or lower on one side. That way the sway bar doesn’t have any bind in it when sitting level and static. I installed this sway bar on a transit 150. Happy with the product other than I had to severely modify how it’s mounted to the frame because of rattling and vibration you could hear in the vehicle. There isn’t enough structure on these vans to mount like they tell you in the instructions. I ended up using large heavy washers on both sides where it goes to the frame and actually welding the washers to the frame side to distribute the load over the box frame rail. This eliminated the rattling and movement of the bushings that go through the very light frame rail. It was pretty involved, but glad I did it. I pass this info onto the manufacturing and not sure if they have changed their installation process or not. If you end up wanting more info of what I did feel free to ask.
