sway bar end link scare!?!?!
so i replaced my end links bout 30 minutes ago, all the way around and car felt better already just cruising around, until i got on a straight away and gunned it up to about 80mph and all of a sudden the whole car sway left right left REALLY crazy like but i kept it under control to slow down....
i pulled over to check all the links and everything looks good????
did they just set them selves in place? or is there a possible other issues???

Hmmm, this is extremely strange. I would suggest you cautiously go over the same road again at a reduced speed and see if this may have something to do with the road surface itself. Swaybars have a tendency to exaggerating groves in the road, especially on F-bodies which came with 275/40R17 tires. Some people call it "rail roading". The car will guide itself around the groves in the road.
Did you tighten your endlinks with the suspension unloaded or unloaded? You should have the suspension loaded when they're tightened down. Not that this would cause this issue directly, but it may have an impact on your vehicle.

curious as well. I installed my rear sway bar while suspension was loaded and the endlinks are at a weird angle on my car. I tightened them down just enough where there wasn't any play and you couldn't turn the washers or bushings any.
