Sways bars and end links, 2016 updates?
Hi All
Considering a set of Eibach sway bars - for reference i have eibach pro-kit springs. In doing some research here, I see that the front OEM end links will likely fail with the stiffer front sway bars. Those of you who stuck with the front OEM end links, how are they holding up? Did they eventually fail, if so after how many miles? Those of you who went with SPL or Whiteline end links, any issues or tips for the install?

No one is running aftermarket sway bars?

I have Eibach sways front and rear matched with SPL endlinks. No problems to date, but I have less than 10K miles on the vehicle. Only issue was some slight squeaking from the front that was noticeable when driving slowly over speed bumps.Solved by re-greasing the sway bushings.

I have driven 6,000+ miles since installing Eibach front and rear sway bars along with Swift lowering springs. I recently switched to coilovers, and the installer said my end links are fine.
FYI, my sway bars are both set on the softest settings (the holes closest to the ends of the bars). |

For me I am going with Hotchkiss fronts (there's some site that doesn't sell them as a pair) and SPL. |

Been on Stillen sways for about 8k mi and one track day. No issues so far but I also am at stock height. I think it plays a bigger roll if your lowered, then you need to have the adjustable links to bring them back to oe distance (angle) so your not overloading them.
