Swaybar End Links

[Brett_MX5]

Since I'm putting the Teins in shortly I'll need to get replacement swaybar links as the original ones apparently dont fit with lowered suspension..

I havent gotten under the car yet, but can someone tell me how long the original end links are ?? Or if you have the Racing Beat or similar end link, how long they are...

I'm going to get the end links off Whiteline, but I'm not sure what length I'll need to get..

The OEM endlinks will fit most swaybars, suspension lowered or not. However, if you have an adjustable swaybar and want to use all of the adjustability then you should get adjustable end links, then you can make them what ever length you want. You could also then pre-tension the sway bar if you wanted to. MX5Mainia sell adjustable endlinks.

I have have lowered suspension (Tein flex) and whiteline adjustable swaybar, currently using OEM endlink.

Below are the racing beat adjustable end links, in the 2nd photo you can see the endlink attached to an adjustable swaybar.

Yep, echo Juffa on this one. If you are really worried, you can actually bend the OEM end links slightly which will better align them to the bar. I use the RB ones on the race car and they are good. But, if I had the time I'm sure I could build them myself for a lot less.

Kewl, well I'm not planning on lowering it that much really (maybe 1 to 1.5 inch on the front), but I'd rather be safe than sorry... I think I'll measure my links and just take an inch off for the length

The whiteline links I'm looking at getting are adjustable, similar to the Racing Beat style...and alot cheaper

You don't need to cut the links down,just need to bend them a bit to align with the sway bar...my race car was about as low as you can get and I had the stock links...just bent a bit...works with no problem.

Agree with Lou, my car always had the stock links (budget motorsport). Ran all sorts of events with no problems. And I ran as low as 297 (or 292mm). These were on Koni bodies though.
