Product Details

Looking for a rear sway bar for your 2000-2004 Volkswagen Beetle GLX? The Whiteline Heavy Duty Blade Adjustable 24mm Rear Sway Bar is made for it. You receive 1 sway bar, 2 links, 2 bushings, 2 saddles, 2 plates, 2 u-bolts, 4 bolts, 8 washers, and 8 nuts. Application note: 4 Point Adjustable. Listed for FWD cars. Order it as part number BWR22XZ. Position: rear. Chassis code: A4. Trim named on the listing: GLX.

Roll control is shared between the springs and the bars, and the rear bar is the easier one to use for fine tuning balance. A stiffer bar keeps the rear flatter and moves the car toward a more neutral feel. The bar is adjustable, so the stiffness can be changed to suit the car and the road.

Installation is rated moderate, with about 2 hours of work listed. No alignment is needed afterward. Working on the same car? We also list Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing, Heavy Duty 22mm Front Sway Bar, and 22mm Front Sway Bar Bushing Kit for the Beetle.

Features

  • Install guide: Written install instructions are included with the part.
  • Hardware: Supplied with mounting hardware and mounting brackets.
  • Rigid design: Taking the flex out of the connection makes the car react faster to steering input.
  • Roll control: Reduces body sway through turns.
  • Bar mounts: The mounts have an internal bore pattern and lips that retain grease.
  • Bushing compound: Oil, grease, ozone, and weather do not break down the synthetic elastomer used in the bushings.
