The two primary functions of sway bars are to control body roll and to determine the understeer or oversteer behavior of a vehicle.
Stock sway bars have low torsional spring rates because they are manufactured from small diameter bar stock or tubing.
BMR Suspension’s SB038 front sway bar was designed by factoring in the vehicle weight, application, motion ratio, coil spring rate, and adjustability requirements.
Manufactured from heavy-wall 29mm DOM tubing, the SB038 is cold formed to better resist torsional fatigue and retain its "memory" far longer than the hot-formed bars used by many competitors. The sway bar is CNC-formed for exact manufacturing tolerances and repeatable high quality. Thrust washers are welded to the bar to locate the sway bar bushing mounts. This is critical as it properly locates the sway bar and prevents lateral movement during hard cornering maneuvers.
The sway bar mounts to the car using polyurethane bushings. These bushings are molded from 88-durometer, low-deflection, polyurethane, and are internally fluted to keeps grease in the bushing. The steel sway bar mounting brackets are reinforced to minimize deflection.
The sway bar is 3-way adjustable to tune the amount of torsional spring rate and to determine the handling characteristics (understeer/oversteer) of the vehicle.
NOTE: SB038 IS DESIGNED AS A DIRECT REPLACEMENT UPGRADE FOR FE4 FRONT SUSPENSION SYSTEMS, WHICH HAVE LARGER 12MM STUD FRONT SWAY BAR END LINKS AND ELECTRIC STEERING. WILL ALSO FIT ON 2010+ SS OR V6 (WITH HYDRAULIC STEERING RACK) IF USED WITH ELK011 FRONT END LINKS (WILL REQUIRE UPPER END LINK MOUNT TAB HOLE TO BE ENLARGED ON FRONT STRUTS TO ACCOMMODATE LARGER 12MM STUD).
