Beck/Arnley Suspension Stabilizer Bar Link P/N:101-8449
Keep your front stabilizer bar connected to the suspension and tame body roll with the Beck/Arnley sway bar link 101-7171 (also written 1017171). This front left stabilizer bar link is application-specific for the listed vehicles and installs as a direct replacement, tying the front sway bar to the control arm or strut so the bar can do its job of resisting lean through turns.
Signs this part may need replacing: clunking or rattling from the front suspension over bumps, looseness in handling, or a torn/worn link boot. If a failed stabilizer bar link is the cause, this replaces it.
