Description
Powerflex Rear Sway Bar Link Rod Bushings for BMW E21.
Function and design
The sway bar transfers load between the suspension on opposite sides of the vehicle. Its bushings locate the bar or its links while accommodating the movement required by that mounting arrangement.
What to consider
Reducing unwanted movement at the mounting point helps the bar act through its intended connections. Mounting bushings, end-link bushings and lateral support clamps perform different jobs and should be matched to the location being serviced.
Application
BMW E21.

Installation considerations
Measure the bar at the bushing contact area where a bar-bore size is specified. Match the bracket or link arrangement as well as the diameter, and follow the lubrication instructions for the selected part.
