I'm almost positive Thuren uses the Carli endlinks. I don't have any pics of mine right now but I can tell you they are extremely stout and never heard of any problems with them. I also prefer the stud-end that Carli uses. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the bolt-end that Lorenz uses; I just prefer the stud-end.

i already sent off an e-mail to thuren and waiting for a response i got a response from sean lorenz and he suggested i not use the endlinks he offers with a 2" block but i have no choice since i have the sssss so now im looking to carli because they are good from 0"-3" and will probably work with my setup

I had the Sway bar drop blocks and switch to the end link. It was well worth it.

The endlinks we make are mounted in double-shear on the axle, much thicker than the OEM pieces and way stronger; the heim joints themselves have well over a 15K# load rating - that's about 3X the factory units!

Of course, their brackets are powdercoated with SS & Cad-plated hardware, and available in ANY length - and adjustable in height within each length range to allow for fine-tuning the angle with ride height.

Installation just requires opening up an existing hole a little more than 1/16" and a few minutes of wrenching.

The housings are chromoly steel with teflon-lined races... the whole kit is pretty durable under abusive conditions.
