The next step in tuning your car's handling - after shocks/springs and camber plates - should be a set of swaybars. Using larger front and rear sway bars will give your car better/quicker turn-in and less bodyroll in corners. These bars replace the existing sway bars on the car for a clean and simple upgrade with very little downside. Sway bars should be matched with your springs/shocks to maintain a proper handling balance. In some cases only a front or rear bar is needed to positively change the balance and make the car more neutral. We sell sway bar kits from H&R, Racing Dynamics, OE BMW upgrades, and even some of our own designs. Swaybars are sold with new bushings. New links and other hardware are strongly recommended.
The front sway bar links are known to fail on the E39 5 Series V8 models (540i and M5). Early sway bar link failures produce clunking noises and vibration, while more serious failure will leave the front sway bar disconnected and cause serious handling issues. This is a replacement sway bar end link for the 1997-2003 BMW 540i and 2000-2003 BMW M5 (all V8 models).
