I got some adjustable sway bars off the forum but the end looks don't look so good. I figure I'll just replace them now. Who makes a good set?
The best links I'm aware of are manufactured by Anze Suspension (see:https://www.anzesuspension.com). I'm not able to recite the technical superiority of their construction, however if you call and ask for Angelo he'll enlighten you. Simply said, they are made of the best and hardest materials to the tightest tolerances, and are pre-lubricated and fully sealed for years of trouble free QUIET service.
I had them on a Porsche Cayman that had beefed up suspension/bars. The Anze links were the only ones that would stay quiet so I could enjoy a noise, vibration and harshness free ride for the street miles to and from the track events as well as daily driving.

Huh? Shocks vs Sway Bars?
Our shocks (Mag Ride)are about as adjustable as it gets.
Here is a source of the Heim ends and some other parts that put the adjusting nut of a Grannatelli end link in the center of the bar (See pdf sheets). These guys sell to the dirt-track racing crowd, so their stuff is tough.
I used one of the double adjusters, one 5 1/2 inch swaged tube and one 5 inch swaged tube per side of the car. This replaces the solid tube of the Granatelli. Then the toe adjustment is no longer inside the barrel of the wheel at the Heim joint, but the center of the bar and easy to get to. Anybody that has used the aftermarket toe links knows what a PITA adjusting still is with just one long tube. Toe adjustments are now easy and much faster. On the double adjusters, the gold jam nut is LH thread
