Product Details

This page covers the Whiteline Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link (Models w/ Pressed Steel Arms) for the 2002 Volkswagen Golf/GTI 337. The listing names the 337 trim. Chassis code: 1J. Placement: front. Order it as part number KLC150. Application note: Suits Models with Pressed Steel Arm. Adjustable Extra Heavy Duty. The kit contains 2 links.

The front 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.

Installation is rated moderate, with about 1 hour of work listed. No alignment is needed afterward. To go with it on the Golf/GTI, see Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing, Heavy Duty Blade Adjustable 24mm Rear Sway Bar, and Heavy Duty 22mm Front Sway Bar.

Features

  • Install guide: Whiteline packs an install guide with it.
  • Rigid design: Taking the flex out of the connection makes the car react faster to steering input.
  • Anodized alloy: An anodized coating protects the alloy from corrosion and wear.
  • Pre-greased: Comes pre-greased, so it can go straight on the car.
  • Hardware: Also in the box: locking nuts and washers.
  • Construction: The body is made from high-grade alloy for strength without added weight.
