ETG-0292 – SWAY BAR TURNBUCKLES – FOR 3/8″ ROD ENDS

ETG-0292 – Sway Bar Turnbuckles – For 3/8″ Rod Ends

The ETG-0292 Sway Bar Turnbuckle is designed for use in adjustable sway bar linkage assemblies found in asphalt and dirt oval track racing applications. Manufactured with right-hand and left-hand threaded ends, the turnbuckle allows quick and precise sway bar link length adjustments without removing the linkage from the race car.

Proper sway bar linkage adjustment is critical for maintaining correct sway bar geometry, eliminating preload, and ensuring consistent anti-roll bar performance throughout suspension travel. Fine-tuning link length allows racers to accurately center the sway bar and establish neutral settings during chassis setup and scaling procedures.

Features

• Designed for 3/8″ rod ends (heim joints)
• Right-hand and left-hand threaded design
• Allows quick sway bar link length adjustments
• Ideal for sway bar preload and centering adjustments
• Compatible with asphalt and dirt oval track racing applications

Technical Information

Sway bar link length directly affects sway bar positioning and preload. Improper adjustment can introduce unwanted chassis imbalance, inconsistent handling characteristics, and unequal loading from side to side.

Common uses include:

• Sway bar centering
• Link length adjustment
• Preload tuning
• Chassis setup and scaling
• Sway bar maintenance and replacement

Technical Directions

• Install using matching 3/8″ right-hand and left-hand rod ends.
• Ensure adequate thread engagement on both ends of the turnbuckle.
• Adjust equally as required to achieve desired link length.
• Verify sway bar operates freely throughout full suspension travel.
• Check for proper clearance and eliminate binding before competition.
• Reinspect linkage components during routine maintenance.
