C8 Corvette aFe CONTROL Front Sway Bar (2020-2026)

aFe 440-401008FL 3-Way Adjustable Front Sway Bar for C8 Corvette

The aFe CONTROL Front Sway Bar 440-401008FL is a 35mm (1.375-inch) hollow tubular front anti-roll bar for the 2020-2026 C8 Corvette with the 6.2L V8. Constructed from lightweight 1026 DOM steel, it provides three adjustment positions so the front roll rate can be tuned for sharper response and a handling balance that matches the driver's street, autocross, or track setup.

This front bar is designed to reduce body roll and improve steering response without requiring permanent vehicle modification. Its three-position adjustment range gives C8 Corvette owners a meaningful way to change front roll resistance, while the included polyurethane bushings and greaseable billet brackets provide a precise, durable mounting system.

Use Overview

The hole closest to the end of the bar is the softest position, with the remaining positions increasing front roll stiffness. Because front sway-bar stiffness affects turn-in, grip balance, and understeer behavior, adjustment should be considered together with tire grip, alignment, driving environment, and the rear sway-bar setup. This bar is intended for C8 owners who want a tunable front suspension upgrade rather than a fixed-rate replacement.
