Sway Bar Link Diagnosis and Repair

Sway bar links are one of the newer components now commonplace on modern vehicles. They were largely incorporated to vehicle designs after the mass adoption of independent suspension. The sway bar is the component most attributable to the quality ride and control on modern vehicles.

While the basics of the sway bar link is simple, the materials have improved along with design refinements that enable the joint to last longer and carry greater loads. For aftermarket replacement sway bar links, many manufacturers have focused on improving the OE design or adding serviceability to the sway bar link joint.
