6th Gen 2016+ Chevrolet #Camaro suspension upgraded with #BMR Suspension adjustable front #swaybar & end links! Installation is performed on my 2021 Camaro ZL1 with a comparison between the BMR & OEM parts.
This is part 8 of my BMR Suspension upgrade video series. Be sure to check out all of the videos! 🙂
From the BMR website:
Front Sway Bar (SB053):
The two primary functions of sway bars are to control body roll and to determine the understeer or oversteer behavior of a vehicle. Stock sway bars have low torsional spring rates because they are manufactured from small diameter bar stock or tubing. BMR Suspension’s SB053 Sixth Gen Camaro front sway bar was designed by factoring in the vehicle weight, application, motion ratio, coil spring rate, and adjustability requirements. Manufactured from heavy-wall 1.25-inch DOM tubing, the SB053 is cold formed to better resist torsional fatigue and retain its “memory” far longer than the hot-formed bars used by many competitors. The sway bar is CNC-formed for exact manufacturing tolerances and repeatable high quality.
Front End Links (ELK016):
The amount of force exerted on the sway bar end link is staggering, especially if you’ve upgraded to an aftermarket sway bar, like BMR Suspension’s SB050 or SB053. The stock end links are weak and can bend or break. BMR’s ELK016 end link kit allows you to push your 2016 Camaro to the limit without fear of end link deflection. BMR manufactures the ELK016s out of CNC-machined billet aluminum hex bar stock. The right and left hand threaded ball joint-style tie rods are manufactured by Proforged and offer huge advantages over other companies’ end links that use rod ends. Ball joints allow for more articulation than a rod end, which is what you want when you hit the track. BMR’s ball joints are greasable, which you won’t find on our competitor’s end links. This ensures long life and flawless operation.
