Lemforder rear sway bar link
Lemforder OE number 31183 01

A sway bar link is an important component of a car's suspension system. Also known as a stabilizer bar link, it connects the sway bar (which is fixed to the chassis) to the control arm (which connects to the wheel). When the car turns, the weight of the car shifts to one side which causes the control arm to twist. The sway bar link then transfers this force to the sway bar which in turn helps the car to maintain stability while turning. This means that the vehicle is less likely to roll or sway excessively, providing a smoother and safer ride for the passengers.

The sway bar link also helps to improve handling of the car in other situations such as when driving on uneven or bumpy roads. It minimizes body roll and prevents the car from leaning excessively, thus improving the vehicle's stability and control. It is important to ensure that the sway bar link is properly maintained and replaced if necessary, as a worn or damaged sway bar link can cause safety issues and affect the handling of the car. Regular inspections and necessary repairs can help to ensure that the suspension system of the car is functioning optimally, keeping the passengers safe and providing a comfortable driving experience.
