I just got the Racingline Performance rear sway bar for my Altima Coupe 3.5SR and I'm wondering if my stock endlinks will be ok if I install the rear sway bar on them. Should I set the sway bar on the soft or stiff setting? They also forgot to include the pack of grease, so what should I use in place of it? I plan to purchase Racingline's endlinks this week. Thanks guys!

the stock endlinks will hold up with the racingline sway bar.
if you want to get the most out of the sway bar, the rear endlinks is the way to go.

as for the stiffness of the bar, the soft setting is the outter end and it handles just like the stillen sway bar would.
the inner end of the bar is more stiffer and you can take aggressive turns a bit better.

I would highly recommend changing out the endlinks for the matching Racingline endlinks. The factory ones will hold up... for a little bit. They will deteriorate and wear faster as they're being pushed out of spec by the more aggressive sway bar. You don't have to do it right away, but be mindful that they will need to be replaced down the line, and sooner if you tend to drive aggressively.

Post up some pics of the installation!
