Benefits of Link Rod

 

Reduction in body roll

Link rods, also known as anti-roll bars, reduce body roll during cornering by distributing weight more evenly across the vehicle's tires. This enhances the tire contact patch on the road, leading to improved grip during cornering.

01

Handling dynamics

Link rod can influence the car's tendency to understeer or oversteer. Stiffening the front link rod can increase understeer, while stiffening the link rod can increase oversteer.

02

Cornering speed

Link rod for faster cornering by optimizing the car's handling in corners. This is particularly beneficial in performance driving and racing scenarios.

03

Ride comfort and stability

Link rod can make the ride smoother and improve stability, especially during high-speed maneuvers. It also helps in extending tire life and maintaining proper alignment.

04

Overall performance

By reducing body roll and improving grip, link rods contribute to better overall vehicle performance, making the car more predictable and easier to control during aggressive driving.

The Basic Principle Of Link Rod

The link rod connects the sway bar to the control arm/suspension. It is a tubular steel rod with connector points at each end. They can have differing connectors - threaded, spherical eye, stirrup type - with polyurethane (or equivalent) bushes. The bushes allow flex and control while absorbing motion between the sway bar and suspension connection but most importantly it will prevent rattling. Some link rods are made with ball joint ends to accommodate mobility requirements. Each vehicle will have specifically designed link rods to suit the fitment and suspension for individual models.

The Purpose of Link Rods

 

 

Link rods (or stabiliser links or anti-roll bar links or drop links) connect the left and right hand suspension components to either end of a common anti-roll bar made of spring steel which is like a torsion bar running across the car. The anti-roll bar only comes into play if the suspension on one side of the car moves but the other side does not.


A car drives over a speed hump that goes the full width of the road. The suspension is compressed equally each side, the anti-roll bar simply pivots – it is not twisted and there is no strain on the link rods.


But if one wheel hits a speed hump and the other does not, one end of the anti-roll bar is raised – twisting the bar. The force needed to twist the bar is all transmitted through the link rods which are normally quite light metal or plastic rods with a ball joint on either or both ends.

 

Install the Link Rod

 

Please note: Fitment can differ between vehicles and the following is a guide for a common application. 

 

Link rod unbolted from the lower control arm (or suspension) and sway bar

Old link rod removed

Old and new part compared to make sure they are the same component

New link rod fitted

Bolts tightened

The Vehicle is driven to test new set-up

FAQ

Q: What is the purpose of a link rod?

A: The main use of a link rod is to reduce body roll and enhance stability by connecting opposite sides of the suspension system, thereby improving vehicle handling and control during cornering and sudden maneuvers

Q: What is the difference between a link rod and a tie rod?

A: Drag Links (DLs) connect the steering gear and the pitman arm at one vehicle wheel. Tie Rods (TRs) connect the steering knuckles at the left and at the right wheel to transfer the steering forces. THK develop and produce DLs and TRs for various load applications.

Q: When to replace a link rod?

A: Symptoms the link rod needs to be replaced
The link rod is bent.
Clunking noise from the wheel area.
Uneven tyre wear.
Loose steering.
Rattling noise from the wheel area.
Excessive vehicle body roll.

Q: How important is replacing the link rod?

A: The car will clunk and rattle 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 the car is handling well.
