Product Details
The Whiteline Rear Sway Bar Link fits the 2001-2006 BMW 325Ci 3 Series (E46). Part number W23180. It goes on the rear of the vehicle. You receive 2 links.
The rear 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.
Installation is rated easy, with about 1 hour of work listed. No alignment is needed afterward. To go with it on the 325Ci 3 Series, see Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, Heavy Duty 20mm Rear Sway Bar, and Front Strut Tower Brace.

- Preload-free setup: Length adjustment on the car lets you take preload out of the bar.
