where did you get adjustable end links???

[stvn_mj]

What kind did you get mko? I had the ones from complx and I had a snapped one replaced by him and it snapped again I was looking for other ones but I might just stick with stock endlinks.

[M-Rod]

thank you sir. very helpfull

you're welcome. Glad to see the info go to a good cause.

Im putting them together myself. If the whole length of stock end link is 2 3/8 then anything around 3'' and above will work. The rear end link are limited in motion - most of the time they move up and down, they are not like the front end links where they are stressed by the twisting forces of the steering rack where the heim joints experience some odd angles. In the rear the twisting forces are very minimal, limited by the motion of the lateral control arm bushings, so the motion of the heim joint is close to nothing. As a matter of fact a steel plank with two holes can do the job of an end link, but since i dont want to do a half assed job im going to try these.

here are the links of what i just bought.

the new length comes to 3.5-3.6''. Id assume 0.25'' of threading length and the actual length will be 3.2-3.4'' which is a good inch more

[mrg7243]

So what are you using to connect them together??? Maybe you should make a whole bunch and sell them?? i know i would buy a set.

[mko]

they are male and a female, they thread into each other and they come with locl nut, so thats it

[stvn_mj]

Thats what I was going to do before I bought the complx endlinks I might try the same thing. Let me know how they work for you.

Stand by for installation pictures

[mrg7243]

so what are the conical spacers for??

[mko]

to space the ball from the actual mounting point on the sway bar and when you put the bolt thru it, the head of the bolt does not interfere with movement
