Just in case I needed to make a warranty claim on something like the stereo and have Ford knock me back on ilegal modifications. I could imagaine "Nah the stereo wasnt designed for that suspension modification so you'll have to pay to get it fixed'.

give these guys a call and ask for the tech dept. (02) 4340 2355

, if your lucky they might send you a new one so they can have yours and see what happened to it .

red ranger are the supplier and exporter for whiteline I'm sure they would like to see what went wrong

According to Whiteline the way it has snapped is not possible? If I wasnt driving it when it happened I would have agreed with them. They said they can tell that it hasnt been in a prang but cant work out how it snapped.

Does seem very strange that the bar snapped Daz, usually its the links that go first!

Hope it gets sorted for ya

Damn, first time I've seen a 'fail' post re whiteline swaybars. They are (or maybe were?) on my shopping list.

IMO, if whiteline think it's impossible and not from a crash, then they should just swap you for a new one so they can work out WTF happened. I would like to see them confirm that it's a one off ....

hopefully you can get some news as to cause! I'm just about to get some whitelines!

Jeeze mate!

I've got the 27mm front one's on order... hope this was only a one off for these bars.

Any new news about this mate?

Mine is likely to be a rare occurance, so dont be deterred. It served me well for 3 years. I still rate them as the best bang for buck available for our cars. Inexpensive and make a lot of difference.

And no news, there words have been political in order to protect there reputation. All they say is 'A warranty claim is being assessed". I only ask that they replace it though I dont expect them to after 3 years.

I'm no metalurgist, hell - I can't even spell it, but I guess any manufacturing process involving steel will create a chance of failure due to stress fractures, fatigue, etc and this sway bar may have been one of those rare occurrences. You would think Whiteline would have a look at it, determine that no one has taken to it with a sledge hammer or blow torch to cause the failure and hand a new one over and write it off as 'one of those things'. To delay such a simple decision doesn't really look too good for them.
