Product Details
This Whiteline Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link fits the 1999-2001 BMW 323i 3 Series. In the box: 2 links. Position: front. Part number KLC163. Chassis code: E46.
A sway bar link is the short rod that ties each end of the front sway bar to the suspension. Whenever the body leans, the link carries that motion into the bar, so any slop, flex, or wear in it is slop in the whole roll-control system. Its adjustable body lets you set the length with the car on the ground, so the bar is not twisted against its own mounts before the car even moves.
Installation is rated moderate, with about 1 hour of work listed. No alignment is needed afterward. Working on the same car? We also list Front Strut Tower Brace, Rear Sway Bar Link, and Front Strut Tower Brace Quick Release Kit for the 323i 3 Series.
Features
- Hardware: The kit includes locking nuts and washers.
- Ball joints: Heavy duty steel ball joints at the ends move through a wide arc to suit the application.
- Anodized alloy: The alloy is anodized, adding a durable protective layer.
- Install guide: Whiteline packs an install guide with it.
- Pre-greased: Pre-greased at the factory so it can be fitted right away.
- Preload-free setup: The length can be set on the car to remove preload from the sway bar.
