Default Stabilizer bar end links?

Ok well when replacing my old control arm with my new one, my old endlink was messed up. Looks like i hit something and bent the bottom threads really bad to where it wont even come off the control arm without a fight. I just called my acura dealer and they was $64 for one end link . HOLY SHIT!!! nIts just a little tierod end looking thing. Any one know any aftermarket ones i can get cheaper? I went to every auto store around here all said its a dealer part. But my dealer is 50 min away. So i would have to drive there , pay for it. THey they order it and drive back again another day. And $64 is just crazy.

hmmm never even thought about that........hmmmmmmm

Well i finally got the end link off the LCA, after double threading the nut. So im going to mess around with it a bit, take a thread file and a die to it to clean those treads up, and stick it in a vise and see if i cant straighten it out withough braking it, and slap on a new nut.

If you want to replace your end links, Energy makes urethane parts. The cost is minimal, like $20 from Summit Racing, or summitracing.com. I did the urethane upgrade and was really satisfied with the results.
