Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Sway Bar Mount Bushing Kit fits the 1994-2003 BMW 540i 5 Series. Order it as part number W22801. It goes on the rear of the vehicle. Included: 2 bushings.
The sway bar sits in rubber bushings that let it rotate as it twists. When those bushings wear or compress, the bar slides and shifts in its mounts, which causes clunking and a slight delay before it begins to resist roll. Replacement bushings hold the bar in its proper place while still letting it turn.
Expect an easy job of about 1 hour. A wheel alignment is not required. To go with it on the 540i 5 Series, see Front Lower Radius Arm Bushing and Front Sway Bar Bushing Kit.
Features
- Self-lubricating: Built-in grease reservoirs provide continual lubrication and reduce friction.
- Bushing compound: A synthetic elastomer compound resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering.
- Grease: Molybdenum disulfide grease comes with it for a longer service life.
