Default Quick sway bar link question

I was just about to buy some front/rear end links and noticed they had different sizes. I saw 19, 21, 23 and 24mm bushings. These are going on my stock sway bars. What should I choose? What is the difference? Thanks

What brand endlinks are you looking at? Do all the bushings "look the same" if so what do they look like.

I typically recommend using energy suspension. Their urethane bushings really hold up to the abuse of racing and rough road surfaces.

wait a min. Are you talking about the links that go from the swaybar to the control arm in the front and from the sway bar to the frame in the rear? You know the link with four bushings, 4 washers, one nut and a bolt that runs down the center of all that.

OR are you talking about the bushing the wraps around the sway bar and then has a strip of metal going over it which then has two bolts securing it to the frame, or on u bolt securing it to the rear axle.

I was looking here http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...ath=235_23_306 for an endlink kit but do not know which to choose. They have different mm sizes which is what im confused about.

The only items I see on that page are sway bars and sway bar bushings. There are no endlink kits listed on that page. However if you are looking for a sway bar bushing kit and your car is a 98+ WS6 and your certain it has the stock bars on it then you need a 32mm front bushing kit and a 19mm Rear Bushing Kit.

The energy suspension P/N for endlinks is: 9.8118

Hey no problem. Sometimes it's tough to try to communicate via forums. Just glad I could help.

BTW, which part is the the one you were looking for cause I'm still not 100% sure I know which one it is.
