New endlinks

So I asked dayle at the svx motorsport wearhouse about endlinks and he said none were ever made and the svx's are good enough.

I beg to differ. Since sway bars are too expensive, I think some custom endlinks are exactly what I need to make my car handle better. Some guys in my school's car club are helping me make some endlinks using parts from http://www.mcmaster.com/

As an interesting side point, both my right front endlinks were bent in exactly the same way in the same spot. Here is what is on our cars right now (with measurements).


I'll keep you posted on what we do

Mine were bent like that when I replaced them... I figured it was because of my........driving habits.....when I first got the car

Significant Technical Input
Mine were also bent exactly the same. I didn't see that as a problem, nor do I see the links as being weak/bad. I replaced mine as one was slightly worn/noisy. I found that the links from a late model Cougar fit just fine and were only $16/ea., my cost. I replaced them almost two years ago and they're still in good shape.
