Sway bars and endlinks

Has anyone replaced the endlinks on their swaybars?

Which Whiteline part number is it?

I've also got the Cusco, ask the Phat to get you the part

also got the Cusco reinforcing brackets (the standard mounts look a bit thin)

I ended up getting the AVO suspension kit.

Consists of:
20mm solid adjustable sway bar (it's orange

)
front and rear adjustable endlinks
front and rear polyurethane swaybar bushes
rear sway bar mount reinforcement (it's orange too!

)
front caster bushing (aka the tennis ball replacement)

The endlinks are still balljoints, so there shouldn't be any increase in noise or vibration, like the Whiteline/Cusco solid ones.

yep, those are the tennis balls.

On another note, I'm still getting knocking with the endlinks

not happy. Going to go back to stock soon, so I might have a set of endlinks for sale cheaply!

these have an actual spherical bearings.

as for the tennis balls

i'm more inclined towards these, but... alot more $$ then the AVO ones.

The AVO ones have ball joints in them, just like the OEM ones - they *shouldn't* make any noise?? but they do, so I'm stumped.

it's road noise being transferred up into the car cos everythign is stiffer...

But the sound I hear is very distinctly a knocking noise, not a gradual road noise...

when you hit a bump?

check that the mount bolts are tight. usual cause of knocking noise

hmmm might check that - I'm still waiting on my sway bar mounts so I guess I'll just have to bear it until then :lol:

thanks!
