Would anyone be interested in doing a group buy on sway bar end links?

I've been looking around at a couple of brands this morning, the first being Perrin and the second Agency Power.

To me, both manufacturers products look of great quality, but if there's another brand you would prefer please post it up.

Perrin part numbers are as follows...

Fronts - PSP-SUS-110

Rears - PSP-SUS-225

Here's what they look like.

Agency Power part numbers are as follows...

Fronts - AP-GDA-205

Rears - AP-GDBC-200

Here's what they look like.

Both brands are $125.99 (Approx $137 AU) per end plus freight, if I can get an idea of numbers I'll see if they can do a better price.

Again, if there's another brand you would like to include, please don't hesitate to post it up.

Thanks guys,
Rusty.

Kartboy would be a much better option. The spherical bearing versions always become noisy which is a pita imo.

Keep me posted how you go with these Rusty :D Also, there is a COBB option that can be sourced through MPSgarage that looks pretty good. Up side is, they are supplied from local stock :D

I'm in the market for some new ones, but have heard that some of them (Whiteline in particular) tend to squeak... So wouldn't mind know how these other brands perform before spending the dosh :D

I have read that the Rallitek HD endlinks are very good, similar to factory design with fully sealed joints and increased shaft thickness. No noise but more durable and stiffer than stock. I wanted to ship some over but the cost of shipping was almost double the price of the links themselves.

Yeah that shipping was ridiculous on their site, figured they were just covering themselves so I sent them an email asking for clarification on the shipping. Also I asked about buying multiples so hopefully they give a good discount. I'll pass on the info to you Rusty as you are the group buy dude for this one :D

If you want I can check with a guy I know in Canberra that is a Kartboy agent. See what prices he can do?

I'm a potential here. Can I clarify, when you say $125.99 per end, do you mean per endlink (as in to do the whole car 4 x 125.99) ? Or do you mean front end/back end, so 2 x 125.99 to do the whole car ?

The Kartboy ones seem pretty good too.

Dwayne.

Sorry for the confusion mate, they are front end and rear end. So it's 2 x $125.99 for a full set.

Cheers.

Jim.

I've heard excellent things about the Rallitek's but like you the shipping price put me off.

Hopefully they'll come to the group buy party. :mrgreen:
