Product Details

A sway bar link is the short rod that ties each end of the rear 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.
Whiteline rates the install as easy and lists about 1 hour. It does not require a wheel alignment. To go with it on the 340i GT, see Front Lower Radius Arm Bushing.
Features
- Rigid design: Less flex than the original parts means a quicker, more direct response, especially in lane changes and at initial turn-in.
- Corrosion protection: Rust protection comes from plating on the metal parts.
- Ball joints: Heavy duty steel ball joint ends pivot freely through a wide range, which helps fitment.
- Preload-free setup: The link can be set to length on the vehicle to remove bar preload.
- Material: Made from steel.
- Install guide: Instructions for fitting are packed in the box.
