Product Details

This Whiteline Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit fits the 1996-1998 BMW 328i. Whiteline's note for this fit: Includes BBF39Z and BBR38Z, Front sway bar fits vehicles with control arm end link mounting. It is listed for the E36 chassis. You receive 2 sway bars, 4 links, 4 bushings, 4 brackets, 8 bolts, 18 washers, and 10 nuts. Whiteline part number: BBK001. Placement: front and rear.

Front and rear sway bars work as a team. The bars resist roll by twisting, and their relative stiffness shapes whether the car feels planted or loose at the limit. This kit supplies both ends so the balance stays under control. Adjustable mounting points let you step the stiffness up or down without changing the bar.

Installation is rated moderate, with about 3 hours of work listed. A wheel alignment is not required. To go with it on the 328i, see Front Lower Inner Rear Control Arm Bushing Kit, 22mm Rear Sway Bar Bushing Kit, and 27mm Front Sway Bar Bushing Kit.

Features

  • Grease: Molybdenum disulfide grease comes with it for a longer service life.
  • Self-lubricating: Internal grease reservoirs keep the bushing lubricated as it works.
  • Easy to fit: Designed so the install needs no specialized skills or tools.
  • Bushing material: Polyurethane is firmer than the factory rubber, so it deflects less under load.
  • Install guide: Step-by-step installation instructions come with it.
  • Bushing compound: A synthetic elastomer compound resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering.
