I'll be upgrading my swaybars soon and was wondering if anyone has any experience with these billet spherical bearing swaybar endlinks?

What grade of installation bolt do they provide? Grade 5? 8? 8.8? 10.8? This will help you determine the quality of the product.

I would prefer to go with something like these Whiteline KLC110 adjustable ones. They will be as quiet as the stock ones and will last for a long time while giving you the option to adjust them so you don't have any preload on the sway bars (or you can add preload if you need to). Spherical bearing ones are good for the track, but on a street car they probably wont last very long.

I'll second those Whiteline links. Couldn't stand the noise from the heim joints on the JOC bar, switched to the Whiteline and they are as quiet as stock !

Thanks for the responses. There is no description on the grade of bolts used so I'll message and find out what they are for curiosity. And thanks for the info mycoupe and raffman55. I am actually looking into getting the JOC bars and wanted better endlinks. Didn't consider those billet ones wouldn't last long for track and street and good to know the whiteline combo would be quiet and last longer. I will be purchasing JOC sway bars and whiteline endlinks, thanks guys!

Can the JOC bars be used with the stock OEM endlinks?

Mlee83

You could but I suggest using aftermarket ones.

Those aren’t adjustable. I prefer the steinjager

Yep...

The whiteline website says they are...

David was referring to the links in the very first post, which clearly are not adjustable.

I'll add my 2 cents in too, they also don't seem to have enough articulation.

I haven't got my sway bars in yet, but installed the whiteline adjustable endlinks on my friends wrx. You definitely want some adjustable ones for preload adjustment.
