Product Description

The **Whiteline BWR22XZ** is a solid 24 mm adjustable rear sway bar crafted from spring steel, tailored for VW Golf Mk4, Jetta (Md1 1J), Beetle (Typ 1C1/9C), Audi A3 8L, and TT Mk1 (8N) platforms. Its three-point adjustment allows you to customize roll stiffness for improved grip and reduced body lean - ideal for spirited driving or autocross environments. Whiteline includes all necessary hardware, link bushings, saddles, and lateral locks to complete the installation.

Installation is straightforward but requires disassembly of the rear axle mounts. The adjustable lever arms deliver progressive stiffness settings without affecting daily ride quality. Polyurethane bushings with internal MoS2 lubrication ensure long-lasting performance with quiet operation. Lateral locks prevent mounting shift under cornering loads. Backed by Whiteline's **3-year warranty** (installation hardware covered for 1 year), this bar is the best value upgrade for enhanced rear handling.

Compatibility confirmed for listed models between **1996 and 2006**; fitment on other years or platforms is currently unverified and should not be assumed. This vehicle component does not impact emissions systems, so no compliance statement is necessary. A wheel alignment post-installation is recommended to maintain optimal handling dynamics.
