I know they are less than the aftermarket stuff - that how we came to design our own... OEM stuff breaks, new parts from dealer are $$ (dream on - the original pieces were junk!) and looking at the "fancy" parts was like $$ (let's just fab our own - that'll work better and be cheaper to boot!)

Supposed to be some updates getting published on the website this weekend - the endlinks should be among them on the steering/suspension page.

 

hmmmmm platinum lol

 

I knew that was coming!

 

Sorry, missed the SSSSS...i have the defiant sss and they fit no problem....guessing different designs.

 

Both designs will fit with the OEM endlinks, but the SSSSS incorporates an integral sway bar drop mount to maintain the factory geometry with a leveling kit. That's why some folks have issues with the upper endlinks contacting the front of the springs when their truck has a lift w/longer control arms and longer endlinks and no drop blocks. The "lifted" sway bar rotates the upper endlinks towards the front of the coils.

 

I replaced mine about a week ago. The dealership wanted $103 each and I found another site that had them for $89 plus shipping for a pair.

Something to consider is the length of the links. You can get stock length or extended length for lifted or leveled trucks. If your truck is leveled you need to use the extended links or use blocks. It is one or the other not both.

I got mine from here: http://www.suspensionmaxx.com/mm5/me...ory_Code=DODGE

I am happy with them so far. Easy to install.

 

I've seen those - probably get the job done, but they're economical due to not having a heim joint end.

Hey, anything's better than cutting loose a couple hundred bucks for new Dodge pieces!

 

I bought the Carli.

 

hmm. looks like a 1/2 chromoly heim. we use them at work and we cant break them for nothing.

 

Looks identical to the lorenz ext links....question for all the suspension guru's....does it matter if the threads are showing? I had someone else put mine on (and the threads are showing)...when i read thru the lorenz install instructions it says no threads should be showing.....not sure if it's a big deal or not???

 

These look like they need to be shortened a bit. Just thread the heim in a bit further. You want them as close to vertical as possible without getting into the coil.

 

those are nice, but i just ordered the lazar links from lazarsmith

 

Who's links are those PullU2. Are those the Thuren links, those are very nice and stout looking

 

Those are Thuren's new links.
