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

aFe 440-401008RL 3-Way Adjustable Rear Sway Bar for C8 Corvette

The aFe CONTROL Rear Sway Bar 440-401008RL is a 35mm (1.375-inch) hollow tubular rear anti-roll bar for the 2020-2026 C8 Corvette with the 6.2L V8. Built from lightweight 1026 DOM steel, it uses three adjustment positions so C8 owners can change rear roll resistance and tune the car's handling balance for street, autocross, or track use.

Designed as a direct-fit upgrade, this rear sway bar targets body roll and handling balance without requiring permanent vehicle modification. The adjustable design lets the driver increase or decrease rear roll stiffness, while the included low-deflection polyurethane bushings and billet aluminum brackets provide a precise, serviceable mounting system.

Use Overview

The softest position is the hole closest to the end of the bar, with the other positions increasing rear roll stiffness. Adjustment changes the C8 Corvette's handling balance, so settings should be selected with tire grip, alignment, driving environment, and the front sway-bar setup in mind. This rear bar is well suited to owners looking for a tunable suspension upgrade rather than a fixed-rate replacement.
