Product Details

Whiteline Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link (Models w/ Pressed Steel Arms) is made for the 1998-1999 Volkswagen Golf/GTI (1J). The kit contains 2 links. Whiteline's note for this fit: Suits Models with Pressed Steel Arm. Adjustable Extra Heavy Duty. Position: front. Whiteline part number: KLC150.

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. A body that adjusts in length means the link can be matched to the car instead of the other way around, and the bar starts from a neutral position.

Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about 1 hour. No alignment is needed afterward. Working on the same car? We also list 12mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing, and Heavy Duty Blade Adjustable 24mm Rear Sway Bar for the Golf/GTI.

Features

  • Rigid design: Taking the flex out of the connection makes the car react faster to steering input.
  • Anodized alloy: The alloy carries an anodized finish for durability.
  • Pre-greased: Joints arrive pre-greased and ready to install.
  • Ball joints: Steel ball joint ends handle the loads and rotate to suit the car's geometry.
  • Construction: The body is made from high-grade alloy for strength without added weight.
  • Install guide: Whiteline packs an install guide with it.
