BMW Sway Bar Kits for BMW 3 Series E46 (1999-2005)

These adjustable rear links are only required when using sway bar / swaybars with a suspension with a very low ride height, where it may be necessary to adjust the length of the end links for proper sway bar clearance from the drive axles or other suspension components. These suspensions are usually found only on race cars but this may also apply to street cars with sport springs/sport coil overs that are lowered a lot. On most street cars lowered 1.5" or less, the stock links will be fine.

These end links feature a Heim joint, which allows enough lateral movement when disconnected to adjust the length of the link without removing the entire link from the car. This is particularly helpful when eliminating or adjusting preload while tuning the suspension. Similar links without this joint, can't be adjusted without totally removing the link from the car.

Built-in grease fittings allow for occasional lube, and a packet of grease is included. These links are sold as a set, and include two end links and hardware for H&R and TMS sway bars (other brands may not need the hardware). 

At their shortest setting they are 2.875" hole to hole and on their longest setting they are 3.5" hole to hole.

*Note: these links will not work with factory or non-adjustable Eibach sway bars.

Improve your BMW E46 M3's balance and performance with Turner Motorsport sway bars, meticulously designed to outperform stock anti-roll bars. These bars effectively reduce body roll, minimizing the understeering effects associated with staggered wheel setups. Featuring adjustability with a 3-position front and 2-position rear settings, these bars cater to both street and track handling needs. Sized at 30mm in the front and 25mm in the rear (+4mm and +3.5mm from stock, respectively), Turner bars are crafted from robust spring steel for superior strength and resilience. Shot peened, heat-treated, and precision forged, these bars promise exceptional durability.

Product Benefits:

• Reduces body roll for enhanced stability
• Minimizes understeering effects of staggered wheel setups
• Adjustable settings for optimized street and track handling
• Crafted from robust spring steel for superior strength
• Shot peened, heat-treated, and precision forged for durability

3 way adjustable 30mm front sway bar / swaybar for E46 M3. Includes bushings.

• Reduces body roll
• Improves steering turn-in and handling

Sway bars are typically sold as a front and rear set to balance the handling. But a front sway bar only can also have excellent benefits, especially on a street car. Going with a larger front bar will improve steering and handling even at low-moderate speeds. Steering turn-in is faster and gives the car a more direct and responsive feel. Cars with staggered wheel fitments (a narrower front wheel compared to the rear) will especially benefit from this and help the front tire 'bite' into the road.

We use an adjustable 30mm sway bar that has been fine-tuned for use on the E46 M3. Urethane bushings with a reinforced inner core that requires no lubrication are included. These bars are crafted from a special spring steel that is both stronger and more resilient than competitive sway bars. They have been shot peened and heat treated, and feature precision forged ends.

Links are a common service item due to either worn or over compliant joints and possibly bent or snapped center bodies. Upgrade from the old units to Whiteline sway bar links with superior features that outlast and outperform the original equipment.

The threaded center rod allows for precise adjustment and can be cut to a needed length for precise suspension tuning.

Lowering your BMW does wonders for appearance and handling, but it also changes suspension geometry in ways that can hurt performance. As ride height changes, angles between the sway bar, control arms, and axles shift, which can cause binding, poor fitment, and added stress on the factory fixed-length end links. This is especially noticeable on cars equipped with coilover suspension, where slight height differences side to side can preload the sway bar and lead to inconsistent handling.

Our team of dedicated BMW enthusiasts set out to address this common issue with Adjustable Rear Sway Bar End Links. Designed with performance in mind, they offer a fully adjustable range from 100mm to 120mm, helping eliminate preload, restore proper suspension alignment, and improve overall sway bar function. Constructed from high-quality billet aluminum, these end links are built to outlast the factory cast components and are finished with a black anodized coating for excellent corrosion resistance. Laser-etched wrench size markings allow for quick, easy adjustments while installed on the vehicle. Unlike the factory design, these end links use spherical rod ends at the control arm for increased responsiveness and a more direct handling feel. These end links feature a bolt-through bushing design, which is compatible with most adjustable aftermarket sway bars. Mounting hardware is included for easy installation.

Features & Benefits:

Adjustable from 100mm to 120mm Strong 6061-T6 billet aluminum construction Black anodized finish resists corrosion Spherical rod ends improve response and handling feel Polyurethane bushing with knurled bore helps retain grease Fits most aftermarket sway bars with bolt-through attachment Laser-etched markings for quick and easy adjustments

Sway bars are an essential upgrade when trying to get the best handling capabilities out of your BMW. Stock sway bars allow for too much play and excessive body roll, not keeping the wheels as firmly planted as they should be. Whiteline offers their performance sway bar kits that are designed to improve your BMW's handling characteristics and come with upgraded polyurethane bushings as well.

This Whiteline 20mm sway bar gives you more grip, better handling, and better outright performance. Sway bar upgrades are one of the best dollar-for-dollar investments you can make, improving your BMW's handling dynamics without affecting the comfort or ride quality.
