i want everything POLY!!

That's your sway bar end link. If your wheel feels like it's about to fall off, you have bigger problems than that, since the sway bar in no way holds the wheel on to the car.

Are you control arm bushings shot?

They make adjustable ones for lowered cars to correct sway bar geometry.

IE sucks at hotlinking...just put up the product name and where you can find it on the site!

anyways, is there a significant difference in feel with these?

i'd get these simply because there's no rubber on em!

FYI, you can build these for fraction of the cost. Built my last set and got parts through: www.mcmaster.com

I got them to correct the sway bar geometry and havent really felt any difference. All I know is it helps your sway bar bushings from cracking prematurely since the load is distributed evenly.
I could have built a set but my freind already had them to put on his car before he totaled it so i got them for free.
On IEs site there $55.

Happen to have the part numbers offhand?

One thing i'd look into before you get endlinks. Think about upgrading to M3 style strut tabs. Its a much more eficient design. I would have gone that route but my links were free so its an upgrade for later.

what makes them more efficient? i know they go up higher but what does it do? help decrease the stress on the sway bar?

[Bunta]

Im not really sure how it works. Most newer cars today have the strut mounted link also. That shows some merit?
Helps explain a bit.
