MK4 Golf Rear Balance
The MK4 Golf uses a torsion-beam rear axle on most variants. Rear sway bar tuning affects the car’s handling balance on this platform — stiffer rear relative to front reduces understeer tendency and sharpens turn-in on a car that naturally leans toward understeer. The 24mm BWR22XZ provides meaningful stiffness for FWD performance applications.
Endlinks Included — No Separate Purchase
Having the endlinks in the same kit ensures the bar geometry is correct from day one of installation. The endlinks are sized for the stock ride height on the MK4 platform.
Adjustability for Setup Tuning
The three positions provide fine-tuning within the 24mm stiffness range. Start at the middle position for a balanced street and track tune. Adjust based on how the car responds in cornering.
Why Choose Whiteline
Whiteline has been engineering suspension components from their facility in Australia since 1979.

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
A complete, ready-to-install rear anti-roll upgrade for the MK4 Golf. Endlinks included, everything matched, and a significant improvement over the factory bar. Installation is a straightforward bar swap — remove the OEM bar, install the Whiteline unit with the provided polyurethane mount bushings, connect the endlinks. Start in the middle adjustment position and move from there. Adjustable endlinks are a worthwhile companion purchase if the car has been lowered, ensuring the bar operates at zero preload at the new ride height.
