Description:
The sway bar, also known as a
stabilizer bar, is made of spring steel and mounts to the
frame or unibody. The ends of the sway bar
connect to the lower control arms.
Purpose:
The sway bar helps reduce vehicle lean
during cornering.
Maintenance Tips/Suggestions:
Your vehicle’s steering
and suspension
systems, including the sway bar, bushings, and
links, should be checked regularly, at least once a year along
with a complete wheel alignment. Worn, damaged or missing bushings can
cause excessive leaning on turns or a metallic rattling sound from
underneath the vehicle when going over bumps.
To get professional help with your car’s steering and suspension
problems, contact a qualified service technician.
