Did the part numbers change after the upgrade? Might want to verify you got the updated part...?
Installed the bar this morning (Replacing the factory installed bar.) and it fit just fine. It makes the econ mode fell like normal mode and it no longer tilts on turns. Very happy with it.

Box says it fits 2007 and up.

They are redesigning the 2018+'s, because they told me the old style bar damaged the 2018+ vehicles. They didn't say how or what, but they said they were damaging the vehicle itself!
I'm guessing it interfered with something underneath...... They told me they wouldn't have an ETA on the 2018+ bars until they retooled their part.

So weird we keep getting all kinds of different responses from them. They clearly told me they damage the vehicles, yet they tell you they just don't fit. Who knows anymore.
Once mine EVER shows up, I'll get some pics of it.

@Epps is the Hellwig substantially thicker than the OE Ford bar?

I see that Hellwig also makes a front bar (P/N 7696)....hellwig has no listings for anything beyond 2018 MY.
Ive sent another message to Vern to check on their progress (im betting I know the answer....Kalifornia still shut down ti 18th of May)
