I recognized the cartoon, but not in name, nor because I ever watched it.

, and so on.

Why don't you just cut holes in a piece of fabric and tie the fabric behind your head?

i thought people were so far 'okay' with it not breaking apart?

on my G, the rear oem one broke (rattled) after about 3k miles, but then
i bought some oem reinforced ones and they've been problem free. i have
spare aftermarket endlinks just in case, but have not had to swap them
yet after near 28k miles.

my 9yr old G has 31500miles.

so i 'might' be okay?

Mr.kenchan, I think you'll be fine with the OEM endlink, I suggest that because I see you've been posting about your worry on the OEM endlink couple times, so I suggest you change to the aftermarket one just to have some peace of mind.

do you guys know if people have had any issues running without these locks?

all my swaybars ive purchased in the past came welded on, but i know hotichikis dont come with them.

You need the collar, otherwise the sway bar will shift.

Just gave her a wash and determined two things.

1. I'm paying for a full detail soon.
2. I'm buying a new rear bumper.

Hahaha, mr.alcheng ure messing with my brain I see.

Yah, I hope the store can send me the lock collars if not, I could just get a generic lock from ace hardware.
