Mercedes-Benz SL R107 Rear Sportline Performance Anti-Roll Bar Kit: Elevate Your Classics Handling
For Mercedes owners looking to improve the driving performance of their classic SL 107, handling is often high on the list. While the 107 offers comfort and refinement, it tends to suffer from noticeable body roll, which can take away from the enjoyment of a more spirited drive.
SLSHOP is pleased to offer a dedicated range of performance suspension upgrades, developed in partnership with suspension experts Eibach. Combining our in-depth knowledge of the SL with Eibach’s precision engineering and design tools, we’ve produced a setup that significantly improves the way your Mercedes SL handles on the road.
Our SportLine Performance Rear Anti-Roll Bar Kit features thicker construction and stiffer modern materials than the factory originals. We’ve paired these bars with polyurethane bushes of our own design, ensuring no performance is lost to the compliance of soft rubber. Importantly, these components are not weight-bearing in the suspension, allowing for enhanced performance without any of the harsh riding comfort that is often associated with poly bushes. Your SL 107 will be sporting one of two different factory set-ups. We’ve catered for both but we need your assistance in knowing what to send. Here is a rough guide but it may be best to check the car. Or alternatively, call our parts team with your VIN/Chassis number for assistance.
- Standard drop link roll bar, most commonly fitted on very early V8’s, as well as 300SL R107 and some USA 380’s. The outer extremity of the roll bar will have a single bolt hole and a ball-jointed drop link to the hub.
- Anti-squat roll bar, most commonly found on V8 models after 1980. Two bolt holes on the bar with a rubberized shackle bolted directly to the hub.
Our performance sway bar will noticeably enhance handling, offering greater confidence and control whether you're driving on the road, at the track, or in a rally setting. The upgraded torsion bars increase stiffness to reduce body roll through corners and quick transitions, resulting in a more responsive feel, better balance, and reduced understeer.
Tailored specifically for the Mercedes-Benz SL 107 chassis, the SportLine Performance Anti-Roll Bar Kit installs easily, using the original factory mounting points. It’s a straightforward upgrade that brings out more of what your R107 is capable of.
