So, after 3 years with the NorcalSS 4-6 rear drop kit, free travel mod, the Belltech sway bar and DJM end links broke. I don’t want to buy them again because of this, but is there an alternative?

Also, be passenger end link is off set and “S” shaped. Is there a reason for this? Do I need the same set?

Any help you and provide would be great!

Yep, the end link broke. I included a picture. So, I need a new end links. The question I have is: do I need the “s” shape link or would two straight end links like the factory set up still work? As we’re under the car the sway bar is symmetrical so we’re trying to remember why one end link is straight and the other is offset. Can you shed some light on that please Tony?

What size tires are on the 22's in your signature pic?

Those end links move the swaybar towards the passenger side so the panhard bar mount doesn't hit. The driver side end link should have been moved over too by drilling one new hole and using one of the original holes. This relocates the swaybar over 1". I'm not sure if anybody else offers this. I'm pretty sure DJM will warranty that part- lifetime warranty.

Do you have any pictures of the end links installed, e.g. where the new hole should be drilled? I’m looking through old threads but it’s taking forever.

You just move the driver side clamp over so it uses the hole closest to the passenger side and drill a new hole for the other bolt. It moves that clamp over one width of the clamp. DJM’s website has instructions in PDF with pictures.
