what swaybar endlinks are you running???

so i've had my AP swaybars and endlinks for a while now and they bug the crap out of me. they're so loud and annoying. i've been wanting to switch them out with another set that doesn't make any noises at all. so let me know what aftermarket adjustable endlinks you guys are running and how you like them. THANKS!

I have the same problem with the same product. I disconnected the rear sway bar for the winter.

This worked like a charm for me, and after 2 track days is still tight, and no noise.https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...tened+endlinks

Go back to OEMs unless aftermarket ones are absolutely necesary because you're lowered.
Most of the other ones, after enough miles driven on the road, will degrade and make shitty noises.

In the summer I ride low on JIC Magic coilovers. I have my stock bar on now in the front and I just removed the back one, seems to be more controllable in the snow/ice (I don't have DSC). I am planning on putting them back on in the spring though.

i run evo-r on a lowered car. they do make some noise but quite a few things make noise with wider tires, full exhaust, stiffer suspension everywhere.

evo-r as well, they used to make a good amount of noise, but I just went down to Sears and got some nylock nuts and torqued them down. No more noise.

thanks for the quick input guys! i thought about going back to oem ones but i just lowered my car on stechs and would like to keep them adjustable because i have seen pictures of bent ones because of a lowered car and it doesn't look too pretty hahah. i was thinking about evo-r ones because i heard that they have a better design than the AP ones. i also read that the AP ones have a bad design anyways. too bad i read that after i got them. are there any other good brands that make endlinks?
