do they have allen key spots for safer install/uninstall? meaning if these have been on for a bit is there a spot to put an allen key in the "bolt" to help twist off the nut to make adjustment of the coil overs or what not easier? i have the form and function endlinks on my car now and the boots ripped from taking the nut off during install.

Thanks for the interest Dave, however these do not have the allen slots in the bolt either. It would make sense if they included it just like the OE end link, but most aftermarket ones do not =[. I'm not sure if Ingalls end links include them, I can definitely check for you though. They cost a bit more, so I would assume that they would have them.

Take your stock ones off and see.
It keeps your suspension connected to the sway bar.

It's too technical for me to try to explain the use of the adjustable end links. Where's engifineer(sp?) at?

adjustability, to be able to shorten the shocks and keep the same distance with the sway bar to keep it from hitting anything else. plus these are thicker and stronger then the stock ones.

Good discussion guys!

Yeah Ingalls definitely offers a set for us. But its a bit more expensive then the price we are selling the F&F endlinks for and I don't believe the Ingalls sets are adjustability. They are designed to OEM length. I just seny Ingalls an email to find out if they include an allen key slot.

Yes an endlink basically connects the sway bar to the coilover, but to most car enthusiasts, an endlink can be an important link to the suspension. First off, some coilovers don't come with new endlinks which won't make the install as easy. In comparison, aftermarket coilovers aren't usually at the same dimensions compared to an OEM coilover. This means the sway bar mounting point on the coilover is at a different position. This isn't a major issue, but with the OEM endlinks, you are forced to mount the sway bar in a different position either higher or lower. Adjustable endlinks also allow you to set the preload of the sway bar on both sides which can affect handling characteristics. Lastly these end links are also beefier which in most cases improve turn-in feel when you brake then turn (since the weight transfers to the front). However, most customers that purchase these endlinks mainly go with them since its a bit easier to install certain coilovers that don't already supply new endlinks =].

There's probably a bit more benefits, so anybody please correct me on any wrong points.

Bump! These endlinks are still in stock! We have personally seen OEM front endlink bend and get distorted due to lowering the vehicle.

These are actually at the lowest introductory price we can post =]. We may increase the price later on, at that time we will give forum members a coupon code to keep it at this low of a price.
