Front sway bar

One of the easiest changes you can make to a 124 body Mercedes is the replacement of the front sway bar. If you would like tighter control and better cornering from your car's suspension, you can replace the front sway bar with the one from the Mercedes "Sport" package.

Several original models exist

I think there were several different front sway bars used on 124s. I believe my 89 300CE uses the thicker bar from the 400E, which may be the same size as the "sport" version, and I understand that the 500E has an even thicker one.

I also believe any one of them can be installed in any model 124.

I haven't spent much time in a 124 sedan, so I can't really say how noticeable the 400E sway bar is on my coupe.

124 sway bar
