So, I noticed today when installing my brakes that one of my endlinks lost a bolt and bushings. I have them connected to the new sway bar on the stiffer setting. I knew I should have gone to lowes and gotten better equipment.

Hey Joe, hows about a new set of bushings for one of my rear endlinks?

Products are amazing! hardware is lacking. Some pressure washers, stronger bolts, and better nuts would go long way!

I do email Joe. I like to share my experiences with the community. I think people have a right to know what issues come up. I love the products from racingline and Joe is a great guy. I just get frustrated when I have to keep on fixing them.

Dont be afraid. They will be awesome and work great! All I want to warn you about is getting better hardware. Rear sway bar, Joe claims the holes are bigger now. For the rear endlinks, you will need a longer bolt, a pressure washer, and two nuts. This will give you enough space to put everything together and tighten it enough so that nothing should fall off.

As for the sway bar hitting my control arm, I am still clueless to.

This is not a common issue. Using the supplied loctite and following all detailed instructions will allow you to install all components correctly.
