Toyota FJ Cruiser Sway Bar Link

The Sway Bar Link is used to fasten the sway bar to the car body frame. So, it's is practically the component used to bind the sway bar to the car. This attachment gets fixed on one end with the help of a bushing and nut and the other end is connected to the suspension of the vehicle. Typically, the length of the sway bar ties varies from model to model but is usually about 4 and 4 inches, and are positioned at an angle of 90 degrees to the sway bar.

The sway bar helps to minimise body roll during cornering; it is part of the suspension system for cars or trucks. It is also known for being an anti-roll ball. When any vehicle is pushed at a speed around a corner, the vehicle's interior raises as weight is shifted to the outside corner. The sway bar acts as a level and pushes the inner wheel to the ground which reduces body roll. The sway bar is a rigid piece of tubular steel that links the front / rear suspension at both opposite sides. A component within the sway bar is the sway bar connexion, which secures the sway bar to the vehicle.

When a car is pushed around a curve on a lane, the outer wheel suspension is compressed comparatively more than the inner wheel suspension, which causes the inner wheel to rise, so when the connexion is linked the axle is lowered to it. Here's where the sway bar connexion comes in, it's moving this shift in the control arm's location to the sway bar, so the away bar is raised at the hand. The sway bar becomes twisted after suffering torsion in order to be able to resist the movement which results in the spring expanding on the other side. The sway bar relation thus transfers a shift in spring compression to the sway bar, which increases the spring constant for the other side. The difference in compression is balanced out in this whole process, and the car can stay parallel to the lane. It is also the duty of the remo bar connexion to maintain the camber angle of the inner wheels to regulate its direction of motion. When one of the wheels out of the pairs present at the front or rear experiences a bounce or a dip, the sway bar ties will become active. As the wheel axle level traverses the ties, it allows the sway bar to twist to equalise the tension in both ends. This in turn results in sin neutralising the 'bump' or 'dip' between pairs of attached wheels.
