Endlinks are fux0r3d, suggestion?
I figured that it was on account of the endlinks that the sway bar was rattling, but I didn't expect this. I have the old Comptech rear sway, what do you guys suggest I do?

i have the new Comptech Sway/Tie-bar setup. It also came with adjustable endlinks - they also rattle slightly. I've read of people getting the OEM rubber endlinks to minimize the rattle, but like all rubber things, they deteriorate. Just get new endlinks from Comptech. They should supply them for a relatively low price.

From what I've gathered, these endlinks use a spherical joint and no bushings. I believe that I'd need to replace both parts? Even with new endlinks there will still be excessive rattle?

yes, the comptech endlinks utilize a spherical joint. replace the male/female units for brand new.
about the rattle, i BELIEVE its because i may have the endlinks adjusted too long. the directions from comptech say to set them 3-1/4" apart. however that is for the soft setting. harder settings require a longer distance between the joints.
