034 Motorsport Adjustable Solid Front Sway Bar Upgrade, Volkswagen & Audi MQB and MQB EVO – 034-402-1009

Product Description:

034Motorsport is proud to offer the ultimate front sway bar upgrade for Volkswagen & Audi MQB and MQB EVO vehicles! The 034Motorsport Adjustable Solid Front Sway Bar is made from a single piece of high-quality, 23.8mm thick spring steel for maximum rigidity, and is designed to provide more feedback from the front wheels without compromising comfort on the street.

Engineered to further reduce body roll and enhance steering feel, the 034Motorsport Solid Front Sway Bar is the perfect upgrade for those seeking to positively affect turn-in feel and virtually eliminate lean under hard cornering.

034Motorsport Sway Bar Kits feature maintenance-free polyurethane bushings with a Teflon and polyester liner designed to enhance sway bar response speed while minimizing noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH). This liner also results in an extended service life that allows these bushings to even outlast your vehicle. With no need for additional lubrication, these bushings offer reliable, long-lasting performance without the hassle of regular maintenance and greasing. Built to withstand extreme conditions, the bushings are hydrophobic, heat-resistant up to 500°F, and resistant to water and common automotive chemicals. These bushings are covered by a limited lifetime warranty which covers material cracking, separation of the Teflon liner and polyurethane bushing, or squeaking under normal street or track conditions.

Sway Bar Rate Data:

• 034Motorsport (Soft) – 18.5% Rate Increase vs. Factory 8V Audi S3 (24mm) Front Sway Bar
• 034Motorsport (Stiff) – 40.32% Rate Increase vs. Factory 8V Audi S3 (24mm) Front Sway Bar

Note: We highly recommend installing the 034Motorsport MQB Solid Adjustable Rear Sway Bar before upgrading the front. Fitting an upgraded front sway bar to a car with a factory rear sway bar will increase understeer and inhibit handling performance.

Recommended Alignment:

034Motorsport RS3 track use alignment specs; these specifications are optimal for a track driven car with a very “loose” handling attitude and lively rear end that drives towards oversteer. Caution should be used with these alignment specs as they can cause the car to over-rotate and spin, especially during throttle-lift conditions while turning:

• Front: (Tires: 265/35-18 Michelin Sport Cup 2)
  • Camber: -3.0 degrees each side (034-601-1013 camber mounts)
  • Caster: 7.1 degrees (not adjustable)
  • Toe: 0.6mm (toe-in) each side

• Rear: (Tires: 245/40-18 Michelin Sport Cup 2)
  • Camber: -1.5 degrees each side
  • Toe: 0.8mm (toe-in) each side
