Are endlinks really necessary?

[5497]

Hi, I new to Altima mods and have contemplated on a few upgrades. Intake, catback, sway bar... After reading through some of the posts in this excellent forum and discovering Racingline, I have decided to go with intake (maybe K&N cause I can't find Injen locally here in Vancouver Canada), Ypipe, strut bar, rear sway bar.

After reading the many posts on the sway bar and strut bar, there is no doubt that this will be a good upgrade.

So my question is, should I be spending the $$ on read endlinks if I upgrade to the Racingline rear sway bar? Is the OEM endlink a disaster with upgraded bar? Will I endanger my car and myself cause it will break?

Second, Do I need the front endlinks too? Are the endlinks a peace of mind or will it be "wow, handling is so kick a** now!"?

Thanks for any info. I'm not familiar with endlinks and suspension.

Yes, the endlinks are worth the investment. They will compliment the rear sway bar as well as the OEM sway bar in the front. Also, if you compare the two side by side, you'll see, with a doubt, that the RL's endlink is a lot bigger and stronger. OEM links are about 3/8" thick while RL's endlink is like an inch!

so basically...

if you dont get them, it wont mechanically or suspensionally (new word?) compromise your car; as in the aftermarket swaybar won't damage your OEM endlinks or any other part related to the sway bar???

if you do get them, it'll be 500% better than OEM endlinks?
