Product Details
This Whiteline Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link fits the 2014-2018 BMW 328d xDrive 3 Series. It is listed for the F30/F31 chassis. You receive 2 links. Order it as part number KLC174. Position: rear. Application note: Adjustable Extra Heavy Duty.
The rear sway bar can only do its job if its ends are tied firmly to the wheels, and the links make that connection. A loose or flexible link lets the body lean before the bar starts to push back, which is why worn links show up as a knock over bumps or a delayed feel at turn-in. 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.
Expect a moderate job of about 1 hour. It does not require a wheel alignment. To go with it on the 328d xDrive 3 Series, see Rear Subframe Mount Bushing, Rear Lower Trailing Arm Bushing, and Rear Differential Mount Bushing.
Features

- Install guide: Instructions for fitting are packed in the box.
- Anodized alloy: An anodized coating protects the alloy from corrosion and wear.
- Construction: Made from strong, light alloy.
- Ball joints: Heavy duty steel ball joints at the ends move through a wide arc to suit the application.
