Beck/Arnley Suspension Stabilizer Bar Link P/N:101-5689
Quiet a clunking front end and keep your stabilizer bar doing its job with the Beck/Arnley sway bar link 101-5089. This front sway bar link ties the front stabilizer bar to the suspension, helping control body roll and keep the bar responding through corners. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2011 Mercedes-Benz SLK350, 2005-2010 SLK55 AMG, 2006-2008 SLK280, 2009-2011 SLK300, and 2012 C63 AMG — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details and the full application list.
A worn stabilizer bar link often announces itself with knocking or rattling over bumps and vague, loose-feeling handling. If a failed link is the cause, replacing it restores the connection between the sway bar and the suspension. Because these links wear as a pair, it's good practice to inspect and replace the opposite side at the same time for balanced handling.
