Hi all,

Bought this 22mm sway bar

Posted Image


Looks like it needs HD links to match. I've heard the stock ones will snap because of the new found ...stiffness...

I currently have an STi 20mm swaybar with these endlinks

Posted Image


Will they still work?

These look like the WL ones I'll need

http://whiteline.com...rt_number=KLC32

Searched for WL SB endlinks on ebay and these showed up.

http://www.ebay.com....=item1c21fd9c2c

Same thing?

Any other options I should consider?



Cheers :)

Morgan,

go for the solid alloy ones, not the second ones you've linked to on your second link.

like this



Cheers

That says its for 97-02 Foresters? I'm guessing the WL ones I posted are the SG equivalent?

Will definitely go solid alloy :)

the whiteline link you posted didn't work for me.

but if they're like the ones I posted, then by all means, snap them up.

As long as they suit your particular model, then all will be good.

BOTH BENT!!! U would think when the last owner got the full MRT kit they would have done both the front n rear links! Posted Image MRT!

Wat is even more weird we both have different rear links??? U have the same ones as the SF but I don't...

Aek which ones do u have?

Do you get any sort of creaking with those bent ones, Chris? Doesn't look too good!

I think I will just grab those WL ones. Part #KLC32

The sway bar comes with HD Mounts & PMD Strengtheners... Would I need those bracket supports?

I'm pretty sure the KLC32 is the right part for the linkages... The OE ball joint is part of the OE link which is prone to snapping with the 22mm swaybar...

Thought so. I've heard good things about those PMD strengtheners.

Is there a Whiteline vendor on here?

EDIT: Car Mods Australia are our vendor ;)

Did some more research on the adjustable, can become noisy over time for street car so KLC32 it is...
