Saab 9-5 Link rod (link pin or sway bar link) replacement
Saab 9-5 link rod (link pin or sway bar link) replacement
Have you ever wondered how a Saab 9-5, or any car for that matter, manages to so stay on all four wheels when it’s driven around a corner?
Included amongst the wonderful components of a Saab 9-5’s suspension system, there is a device called the sway bar (also known as a stabiliser bar or anti-roll bar) which works to prevent body roll.
If your Saab 9-5 is clunking from around the wheels, the tyres are wearing unevenly and the steering is loose, then there is a good chance there is a suspension problem and it could be coming from your Saab 9-5’s link rods.
It is recommended to replace the left and right side link rods at the same time. Your Saab 9-5 will be noisy and will become harder to control on cornering when there is a problem with the link rod.
If left for too long, tyres can wear too and replacing tyres can be more expensive than replacing the link rod. Best to replace a link rod as soon as you can to make sure your Saab 9-5 is handling well.
