SH/SJ Forester and Crosstrek Platform Notes
The SH Forester (2008-2013) and SJ Forester (2014-2018), as well as the GP/GK Crosstrek (2013-2021), are practical all-wheel-drive SUVs that see high mileage as daily drivers. Rear endlink wear is a common maintenance item on high-mileage examples of these models.
Worn Endlinks and Rear Sway Bar Effectiveness
Worn rear endlinks allow the rear sway bar to operate with play in its connection to the suspension — reducing the bar’s effective anti-roll stiffness. On a taller-bodied vehicle like the Forester or Crosstrek, this reduction in rear bar effectiveness has a noticeable effect on body roll control.
Simple Replacement
These are a direct bolt-on replacement for the OEM rear endlinks. Remove the worn units, install the Whiteline replacements, torque to spec. A straightforward maintenance task.
Why Choose Whiteline
Whiteline has been engineering suspension components from their facility in Australia since 1979. Every product in their catalog is developed with a clear goal: measurable improvement in handling, stability, and tyre contact. Whiteline’s polyurethane bushings, sway bars, control arms, and alignment correction kits are engineered using finite element analysis and validated on track before they reach the market. Their components are direct-fit, bolt-on solutions designed for enthusiasts who want real performance gains without fabrication or custom work.
The RallySport Take
Practical maintenance replacement for two popular Subaru utility models. Confirm zero sway bar preload after installation with the car at ride height on level ground. If the car has been lowered, adjustable endlinks are the correct choice. These fixed-length units are for stock-height applications.
