Sway Bar end links rattling, options for replacement

[JohnyPython]

I think I found some aftermarket with grease fittings.



Sorry couldn’t get a direct link. I think I’m gonna try these. The come pre greased and can be re greased every oil change.

I've been hearing that damn clunk lately. Just ran out to see, driver side seems okay, but passenger side is shot for sure. Definitely gonna be ordering some new links here shortly. Does anybody know the part number for the bushings? They look cracked and dry rotted.

***update*** The upper joints are completely shot on the Mevotech in less than 10k. Not a good option I guess. Will send in for warranty but suspect more of the same.

Damn I just had a set of these installed when I had my suspension refreshed- I had good luck w/ mevotech front sway bar endlinks on my C5Z

Is there water infiltration or did the socket loosen up?

Sockets are looser than head cheerleader in a two traffic signal town!

Top ones on both sides.

Yes... they lasted less than 5 months... maybe a fluke but the upper joint on two links? Warrantied units should be in route. Will see how second set goes.

On the flip side, runs pretty well sway barless with fresh TSW rebuilds w/bravo valving.

i think the lower joints were bad on my stock ones.. i better grease mine again, 1 dune trip and snoball but they are still quiet for now..

I put these on in late November I believe. No issues to date. That said I’ll pull out the driveway in AM and they’ll be clunking now that I’ve said something.
