Whiteline-spherical bearing swaybar links

Hi all,

Just got an email to say that the spherical bearing swaybar end links are now available for the RX8:

KLC045 - Mazda RX8 front
KLC046 - Mazda RX8 rear

There are good pics of them on the front page at: http://www.whiteline.com.au/

Cheers

Case

Hi thereboonyloh,
Yes I think so, replaces the link between the swaybar and the chassis, which I think, is plastic on our cars.

Yeah, that's why I'm curious.

As for "stronger", has anyone heard of the OEM parts that these are designed to replace failing? If so, under what circumstances?

As for "better looking", I struggle to see the bloody sway bar, let alone the mounting points (especially the front), so it could be purple with pink dots for all I care.

Is there any claim to improve function?? If so, what?

There is always minor improvements on these end links - as it connects the sway bar to the rest of the suspension. It is minor but it will be there

I can see the point and you can sit down with a can of beer with the car on the hoist
