i have a 03msp with factory springs and struts. it seems to have adjustable endlinks from when i bought it, but the thing is whenever i have more than 2 people in the car the sway bar seems to flip the other way. what i mean by that is it rotates and the racing beat sticker is facing the front of the car instead of the rear, and it makes the most annoying sound. so im guessing its the height of the endlinks. but do i extend it or shorten the endlinks?

thanks!
 
Measure the length of them for me... Then adjust to 7.25", whether it be extending them or shortening them... 7.25" is the OE length of the links... You don't necessarily have to adjust it to that length, but that gives you an idea.
 
ah.. i have 6.5... maybe that is why. i tried to adjust the endlinks but they are seized.. i put them in a clamp and vice grip and i could not get the bolts to go. ugh..

I guess someone adjusted them that low to make the bar snug against the frame bushing... That's the only reason I can think, then it allows it to rotate all the way around when loaded...
