Snapped a rear swaybar endlink, 91 240 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

so im not quite sure how i did it but i have some idea.
the left rear endlink somehow sheered itself and now my swaybar is basically uselss.
i have a set of cmr bars waiting to go on but im looking for an upgrade for the front and rear endlinks.

im pretty sure i can make my own for the rear, since its basically a bolt with bushings and a sleeve but im looking for ideas on the front and possibly how big i could make the rear bolt diameter, i think i will make the rear mount solid so it has no flex.

ideas?

heim joints with U-brackets.

the FC FLCA Swaybar brackets work and you can get the heims from bakerprecision.

i'm assuming by fc you mean fc rx7?

the rears i could probalby do with heims as well. ill have to get under my car and look at it. or the simplest method would be just to stick with the bolt

Energy Suspension sells plenty of rear type endlinks, just buy one and cut the spacer to the correct size.
