Whiteline Swaybar Links vs WL Pin Eye Link?

I got two options mounting my rear sway-bar links.

One is the Pin/Eye type (comes with the sway bar), the other option are the links shown in the picture (right).

The links on the right side have no bushings at all, how does that affect the operation of the sway bar?

Cheers!

Less poly = more direct transfer of force into the bar.  Makes the response sharper and more direct, slightly harsher, slightly twitchier.  They're a good thing.

[Torques]

Thanks ... makes perfectly sense.

I hope it's not going to be too twitchy / harsh but the bar is adjustable so I will start with the softest setting.

don't worry, the 2x ball joint type are OEM style in lots of applications including GTR front.

 

They do wear out and start to bind or clunk though, and I guess are more expensive

[Torques]

Yes, that's correct .. they're quite expensive for what they are but I got them for 30% less.

I will install them and report back ...

 

Cheers!

I once was all over the suepr thick ARBs and all.... now wished I didn't bother upgrading them.. I have both my mine on the softest settings for track use.. the ARBs just made the car super duper twitchy and sketchy.

Even MCA said to use stock.

Because I'm stubborn and didn't listen I bought thick ones, and kept snapping the mounts that hold the links up front lol

What do you mean by super thick though?  Is that the 24mm territory or the 27mm territory?

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

24mm 24mm, wanted 27mm 24mm at the time using the SydneyKid methodology with super thick ARBs and shit soft spring rates. 

Guess that's good for street use, but track wise was aids.
