are they Metric like OEM, or 1/2"? Are they short enough to be used in conjunction with OEM units?

Seems like when I was researching end links, Powers Grid's were the mac daddy of end links.

I have used them for awhile on my T1 bars, they are pricy but they have held up well and are quiet and very easy to set up.

Downside...at their shortest length they are still longer than OEM so you can't go budget and use OEM on one side.

I agree. I installed mine on all 4 corners last summer. Makes adjustments very easy.

I've found that to be true on every adjustable end link I've ever tried.
Also - I have no data to back this up, but I "think" longer than stock endlinks effectively softens the rate of the bar since it rotates it to a more upward position and thus having less leverage. Obviously a mm in overall length here or there isn't gonna matter, but it makes me wonder if extending the links to their max may actually make a difference.

the further the angle goes from 90deg (longer or short) the stiffer you get.

I've used some heims with OEM, but you have to shorten the heim to get it short enough to match the OEM fixed unit. I don't remember which heims I used, but just had to shave a bit off of the threaded end.
