I'm going to test these end links on my car for another week. Then I'll get the group buy started. In the mean time, I'll working on the front end links.

Don't want to sound critical, but whats the diameter of the threaded center and what grade of hardware is it/material?

There is a lot of force transferred through the suspension link.

The center connecting rod is made of M10 coated carbon steel. The connecting rods i'm using are designed as connecting rods for car suspensions. Although the end links do see a lot of force, most of the force is transferred through the connecting rod as tensile force. There is very little shear forces through the connecting rod. Either way, these rods are more than sufficient.

Agreed, more stress is induced into the balljoint area than the rod. Notice how thin the stock is.

i've been holding off on sway bars actually due to the endlinks not being released for the front, but if this gets done i'll definitely buy this and hotchkis

You shouldn't hold out on the sways. Go ahead and buy them, it's definitely worth it. If you do have any problems with an endlink breaking, the stock one's are cheap ($25 or so). However, most of us haven't had any issues.

I've had my sway on for a few months now and I drive the crap out of my car with no problems on the stock endlinks. Still gonna replace them with either these it white line though just to be safe.
