Default Roadtrek Popular 190 Generator Relocation and Sway Bar Install

Three videos to relocate the generator (I suggest 4" back now that I've done it, not 3-1/4") and install a Hellwig 7635 rear sway bar. I had the van on the road for 8 hours this weekend and the swaybar did not hit the generator exhaust despite some rough roads but there will probably be issues when I install a lift kit. There are 2" coil spacer lifts, 3" & 4" front spindle lifts, and 5" & 6" full suspension lifts available for these vans.

You will find some links of manuals and supplies if you open up these videos through YouTube (click on the link above the video).







Cheers, Steve

Good info!


I ended up using shorter end links (1" shorter) to get the sway bar arms parallel to the ground and the end links as close as possible to a 90 degree angle on my older chassis.


Steve's installation looks good though so that might not be needed on his van.
