I replaced my End Links With MOOG .

Definitely looking to try these out. I have quite a bit of noise from the front end when going over speed bumps that maybe this will help to fix.
 
dragonpark, i was having some serious clunk sounds too, after replacing struts (front right was blown) and endlinks, i still have some squeaking coming from the left front somewhere...anyone have any tips on what to look at for this noise? what else might make a squeaky sound (like when turning into a steep driveway)..?
 
I've been installing the Escape Endlinks on my 2002 P5 (these ones are labelled As Nascar Advantage by Canadian Tire but are actually Moogs), and I've run into a snag. The passenger-side endlinks installed fine, but on the driver side the Zerk fitting bumps into the strut base so that the stud can't mount properly:

I assume that I'll either have to buy a lower-profile Zerk fitting or plug the hole. Man, there's always something!
 
Thanks Rico for the link.
So just wanna confirm. For lowered cars do we get the longer or shorter rear links?

I didn't want to do that because it looked like that would allow contaminants into the top endlink. In the end, I put a lower-profile vertical Zerk fitting onto it, and it just grazes the lower spring support. I figure it's not too big a deal since that whole section in the picture moves as one piece, but the force from the spring may cause the support to deflect a little during driving. The Zerk fitting is brass (I think), so it'll wear first. I'll keep an eye on it, and if it shows any signs of wear, I'll replace the entire fitting with a 1/4"-28 NPT plug.

Funny because I had the exact same problem with the Canadian Tire links too. And in the end, I ended up plugging it to. (whistle) Ah well they were cheap enough so if it fails just slap another one on.
