Product Description

The H&R 71725-28 Rear Sway Bar is a performance upgrade designed for Volkswagen Golf MK4 (1998-2005), Jetta MK4 (1998-2005), and New Beetle (1998-2010). By increasing the rear roll-stiffness with a 28 mm adjustable bar, it reduces body roll and enhances lateral stability - delivering sharper cornering, more confidence in turns, and improved overall chassis balance, while keeping ride height and comfort unchanged.

Constructed from premium 50CrV4 steel, cold-formed and heat-treated for maximum durability, the bar features forged seamless ends and a two-hole adjustable mounting design - allowing drivers to fine-tune suspension response based on driving style. Included urethane/Teflon bushings ensure smooth operation and minimal maintenance. This rear anti-roll bar is ideal for drivers seeking improved handling and control on stock suspension setups - whether for spirited street driving, occasional track use, or daily driving with enhanced stability.
