KDSS Rear Sway Bar Clamps
- In stock
Replacing your OEM (original equipment manufacturer) sway bar bushing clamps with 2-piece clamps—often billet aluminum or heavy-duty steel—offers several key advantages, especially if you’re modifying your suspension or doing off-road driving. Here’s why:
1. Strength and Durability
· OEM clamps are usually made from thin stamped steel, which can flex or deform over time, especially under heavy loads or aggressive driving.
· 2-piece clamps are often CNC-machined from billet aluminum or thicker steel, making them much more resistant to bending or fatigue.
2. Improved Clamping Force
· 2-piece designs allow for more secure and even pressure around the bushing, which helps reduce movement or slippage of the sway bar.
· This ensures your suspension geometry stays consistent, improving handling and ride stability.
3. Easier Installation and Maintenance
· 2-piece clamps can be installed without removing the sway bar in some setups, unlike 1-piece OEM clamps which usually require more disassembly.
· This makes future maintenance or bushing replacement much easier.
4. Better for Aftermarket Modifications
· If you've upgraded to polyurethane bushings or a larger aftermarket sway bar, OEM brackets often don't fit correctly or don’t provide enough clamping force.
· 2-piece clamps are typically designed to accommodate upgraded components more effectively.
5. Longevity and Peace of Mind
· OEM-style brackets may warp or loosen over time—especially in lifted or performance-tuned vehicles.
· 2-piece clamps maintain their shape and clamping force for the long haul, reducing the risk of bushing failure or sway bar noise.
Summary:
You should replace OEM sway bar bushing clamps with 2-piece clamps if you want stronger, more secure, and maintenance-friendly hardware—especially important for vehicles with suspension upgrades or off-road use.
You only need 1 pair per sway bar. For added reassurance, you can place a clamp on each side of the KDSS link to help ensure your sway doesn't move again.
