This invention pertains to sway bar systems, and a method of controlling their operation. Specifically, the present invention relates to provide a way of adjusting the response characteristics of a sway bar system by changing the structure of the typical sway bar links and regulating the modified structure by utilizing an electronically adjustable sway bar link. Said electronically adjustable sway bar link comprises a twin tube cylinder filled with mixed incompressible fluid and pressurized gas and forms a determined volume in order to host pressurized gas higher than fluid flow regulation functions, permitting a directional control valve to always remain fully submerged in incompressible fluid and to modify the fluid path between each tube of said twin tube cylinder, allowing closed or opened fluid flow operation, determined by a controlling device receiving an electronic input and piloting said directional control valve.
