When we visited Hellwig Products a few years ago, they were talking about an expansion. When we visited a couple of years ago, the expansion was underway, and now the expansion is complete as Hellwig expands to 50,000 square feet of metal works, and already Vice President Melanie White suggests that they are still growing.

This is what happens when a company wants as many aspects of production brought under one roof to maintain quality control. White said that while there are some things they aren’t doing in house, like urethane bushings (which are typically standard pieces) and air bags, all metal work is done in house from springs to sway bars.

We checked out the Hellwig booth, which sported a camping trip-ready Nissan, and a display of some of the newest sway bars and components to be bent or formed in its facility. Keeping up with the modern musclecars, the new sixth gen Camaro bars are ready to be shipped, and include both front and rear adjustable bars.

Each bar provides three adjustment points, and are larger diameter than the factory sway bars. The adjustments give the driver tuning preferences when it comes to handling, but Director of Engineering at Hellwig, Ben Knaus, was on hand to state that the firmest setting is not necessarily going to provide the best handling. Knaus suggests starting with the softest setting (furthest eyelet) and making adjustments after test driving the car.

The inclusion of the 2016 Camaro keeps Hellwig up to date on modern musclecars, and as customer feedback and suggestions arrive, new applications are continually considered for production.
