Endlinks

[legacyB4RSK]

Just bought Rallitek front/rear 22mm sway bars for my 01 BE GT Sedan, the shop doing my swap suggested I get solid endlinks as well, so I did. The problem is, I beleive Rallitek got me to get the wrong ones, in answering my query, they wrote that my front/rear end links are the same style as the 93-01 imprezas, which is completely false, (should of checked it before buying). The rear ones I got are U shaped and in addition to the fact that the holes don't line up exactly, they are extremely close the the wheel axle. The OEM rear ones are straight. Checked under my car, the stock sway bar looks like a twig compared to the 22mm ones I got and I worry that the OEM endlinks will get demolished by the massive aftermarket sway bars as they too seem very flimsy. Where could I get solid front and rear endlinks for the BE? Does anyone have any installed in their BE?


Thanks

The fronts should be fine. The rears though, you don't actually NEED to replace. Read here: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=322269&page=2 Post #43

The current generation Subaru Legacy, BE/BH, has a multi-link rear suspension configuration, and uses different components to that of an Impreza.
Rear sway bar is bolted directly onto the cross-member - so heavy duty brackets are not applicable. Factory rear sway bar end links are metal-ball joint type, so there's no need to replace them either.
Front factory sway bar end links are either plastic/rubber bush type or metal-ball joint type, depending on model and country. For the former, we have KLC19 (steel) or KLC30 (alloy - soon to be released).

Whiteline.
Just in case you still want them though, here are the Whiteline Heavy Duty Alloy Endlinks part numbers:
Front - KLC30
Rear - KLC26

You can also use 05+ LGT rear endlinks as tested and confirmed by Dylan @ DS1 Motorsports.

Thanks for the info, much appreciated. BTW, I do have those part numbers already. I might just get the 05+ LGT rear endlinks anyway. I can return the KLC26 , Rallitek just informed me today that it's no problem.


Thanks

And the point of a forum is to share information, not to simply regurgitate it over and over. That's what CAUSES the tons of pages you so dearly hate searching through.

So, in order to prevent another thread that could have been avoided, I now have to lock this. :smt023 :evil:
