sway bar

Suspension torsion link

A sway bar is a metal rod connecting opposite wheels of a vehicle, designed to reduce body roll during turns.

When the car leans, the bar twists and transfers force to the other side, keeping the vehicle more level.

Also called an anti-roll bar or stabilizer bar.

The mechanic replaced the worn sway bar bushings.
