Product Details
This Whiteline Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link fits the 2018 BMW 318i 3 Series. Whiteline's note for this fit: Adjustable Extra Heavy Duty. It goes on the rear of the vehicle. Chassis code: F30. The kit contains 2 links. Order it as part number KLC174.
Links are small parts with a large effect on how a car leans in a corner. They sit between the bar and the suspension and decide how quickly and how evenly the bar's resistance reaches the tire, and this rear link is built to keep that connection firm. Because the length is adjustable, the link can be set on the car so the bar sits relaxed at rest, which matters most after a change in ride height.
Expect a moderate job of about 1 hour. It does not require a wheel alignment. To go with it on the 318i 3 Series, see Front Sway Bar Link Assembly and Front Lower Radius Arm Bushing.
Features
- Hardware: Supplied with locking nuts and washers.
- Construction: High-strength alloy gives the strength needed without much weight.
- Preload-free setup: Setting the length on the car lets the bar rest without preload.
- Rigid design: Taking the flex out of the connection makes the car react faster to steering input.
- Install guide: Whiteline packs an install guide with it.
- Anodized alloy: The alloy is anodized, adding a durable protective layer.
