Spudnic Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Hi, i have a 32 gtr and my link pins are rooted! i was going to upgrade to a whiteline front sway bar and get some whiteline link pins as well but i was told there where not available for my car. Any other ways i can get around this with a decent pair of link pins? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/263348-swa-bars-and-link-pins/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spudnic Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 Bump, basically just looking for a good set of link pins for my 32 gtr, does anyone know a good brand that makes them?

predator Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Is it the pins themselves, or the bushes? This guy can supply bushes if you need them: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ma...rt-t261282.html Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/263348-swa-bars-and-link-pins/#findComment-4509768 Share on other sites More sharing options...

stenve Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 my sway bar links are actually bent (well one of them) on my gtst. Luckily whiteline do a link kit for gtst so ill be getting some soon. i didnt find anything for gtr whilst doing my search unfortunately. Maybe the gtst ones could be modified a little? OR find some from a wrecked car or similar and have new bushes installed from the above post?

JD_R33 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Just get some Nolathane adjustable links and cut them down to whatever size you need. http://www.nolathane.com.au/images/product...aybar-links.pdf Bottom of the page, 10mm and 12mm universal links.

stenve Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 sweet good find. might get some of those instead of the pricey whiteline gear. any idea of cost on those universal ones?

JD_R33 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I ordered a set through Repco about 18 months ago, but can't recall what they cost. Just give one of their stores a ring and quote the part number, they should be able to give you a price over the phone. They're absolutely huge, something like 350mm which I had to cut down to about 75mm to fit on an R33. Seemed like a waste to cut that much off the threaded rod, but oh well.........

stenve Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 too easy i'll give em a call today sometime. so you basically just cut the rod and the ball ends just screw back on? Its threaded all the way? when i first looked i thought you would need to cut it then weld the 2 ends back on haha Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/263348-swa-bars-and-link-pins/#findComment-4514088 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD_R33 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Yep, just unscrew the ball off one end of the rod, work out how long you need it and cut the threaded rod with a hacksaw. The thread is pretty coarse, so just needs a clean up with a small file or a die if you have a tap & die set. Just make sure you get the measurements right before you start cutting.......
