wow, i've had mine on for many yrs, no issues (except for the silly o rings)
Ill ask again...how do you know the bar is in the neutral position?
When I did that I ended up shearing my endlinks. The threads just basically tore apart because the sway bar couldn't travel very far. The first time I set them up I preloaded them. I adjusted them some time later because they were making a lot of noise. I basically reduced their length and that started my series of problems. Mind you it didn't start till a bit later but that's the only thing I can attribute to them shearing. I think you're better off preloading them.
That's about how far mine are setup so far. Make sure that when you turn the wheel it doesn't stretch the endlinks. That's how I broke them the first time. As soon as I set mine up I'll post up a pick.
Alright for anyone that cares, I apologize for taking long in posting these pics. I've been driving on the endlinks for almost 4 weeks now and no breakage. They creak and clunk but that's the "normal" sounds. I'm working on using poly bushings but I'm afraid that might make the endlinks too stiff to rotate which may cause them to break again but we'll see.
The first 3 pics are driver side and the last 2 are passenger side. I took a measuring tape so you could see the length they're at now. I feel that there might be too much of the threads exposed meaning that it "might" have a tendency to bend at that point because it doesn't have the support of the main shaft. Mind you I could be wrong but it's just an observation I made. Let me know about your thoughts, compliments, complaints, etc. Thanks for the input!
