Hey everyone,

Just picked up a rear sway bar from Aaron at Northern Performace, super good guy to deal with.

Anyways, got a Whiteline rear sway bar. It is adjustable 20-24mm. Just wondering what kind of settings other people are running. I was thinking about going 22mm, the middle setting.

Also what kind of endlinks are people using? Any recommendations?

Thanks,

-M

Start on the softest setting and see how it feels, you might find it's perfect for you. If not then move to the middle setting, and so on.

The stock end links are pretty feeble and you might damage them if you're chucking your car around with an upgraded sway bar.

I have been looking at the Perrin rear end links. Any other similar brands I should be looking at?

Cobb make end links, and I'm guessing Whiteline do too since they made the bar your have.

Ive got kartboy endlinks and I am happy with them. A name that I was interested in after i bought my kartboys was poltec (i think) because they had really nice bearings.

About the rear sway bar. Go with the lowest setting and move up from there. I have a progress RSB (just because it came with the heavy duty mounts) and I usually run it at 20 for the winter and 24 for the summer and 20 for the winter (24 is a little too tail happy in the winter for me. That being said, I have a few other suspension mods that contribute to the tail happiness of my car).

I dont think you can go wrong with any of the major brands of endlinks out there. They are all pretty much the same.

Set it to the middle.

as for brands, there are tonnes, perrin, helix, whiteline, poltec, cobb, kartboy, etc

it all depends on if you wanna go sperical bearing, like the helix/perrin, or non, like the whitelines.

its just really personal preference. Here are pics:

Mine (Cusco) is in the middle setting and I've got Whiteline endlinks.

To be honest endlinks are endlinks. Anything will be better than the plastic ones you've got now.
