Damnit! Stop making my choices harder!

I was considering Redline shift boots... then front camber kit... now endlinks!

I don't need this kind of stress!

:silly:

I snapped a stock end link so I bought these to go with my TRD rear sway and I LOVE them...definitely high quality and great for the $$

So any thoughts on getting off an OEM endlink with a stripped hex bolt? :(

Tried to adjust my rear sway at yesterday's autox event and the passenger side hex is stripped. Haven't even bothered with the driver's side yet.

New endlinks will definitely be in order. But need to figure out how I'd get them off.

haha ya...do it like I did since I didn't know there was a hex head to keep the bolts from spinning so I got some nice channel lock pliers and pulled back the rubber boot and gripped the hell outta the bolt while I loosened the nut. I only did this once before I realized there was a hex head on the bolt to keep it from spinning. But it did work for that one!

Not at this time.

These will allow for "preload" on the bar, which if done properly can result in some great responsiveness.

My rears should be here Friday hopefully Hannah will leave me alone long enough to get them put on. Hopefully the next batch of fronts will be done soon so I can get those in to.

Just checking but would the 3/8" size of these rod end seals work for these?

Or is that the wrong size?

It may work, but why even bother for $12 each!

It's for a pack of 6 (which seals 3 rods). Not sure why they can't do an 8 pack though. Who has 3 rods to seal?

Someone else had recommended seals to keep the crap out of them so I was just looking for something simple.

Oh. Then not too bad for a pack of three, but I still would not spend the $$ on it personally, but that is just me.
