Beck/Arnley Suspension Stabilizer Bar Link P/N:101-8734
Curb body roll and quiet a rattling front end with the Beck/Arnley sway bar link 101-4949 (also written 1014949), a direct replacement for the front right position on the 2001-2003 BMW 525I, 1997-2000 BMW 528I, and 2001-2003 BMW 530I. This stabilizer bar link ties the front stabilizer bar to the suspension, transferring load between the wheels to help limit body roll through corners and hold steering response crisp.
Worn links often show up as clunking or rattling over bumps, looseness in the front end, or imprecise steering. If a failed link is the cause of those signs, this replaces it. This listing covers the front right link; inspect the opposite side and replace both together for balanced handling.
