Cheap and easy suspension upgrade

[Captain Insaino]

A nice, actually noticeable little upgrade. If there is any lateral sway at this point, I assume it’s all in the tires. The bushings and end links are quite a bit stiffer than the stock rubber ones. My front sway bar was shiny under the original bushings indicating movement. The new ones seem to bite down a lot harder. No greasing required, except for the rear end link zerk fittings. Everything was well under 100 bucks. The true test will be the next couple of weeks when I load the roof rack down for a trip through twisty mountain passes. No harshness factor at all. Still a smooth and pleasant ride. No squeaks.(yet)

End links and bushings are often overlooked until they’re falling apart. Good move.

He wants us to know that he now has DOUBLE the zerk fittings to grease than the rest of us 900 and K2 owners! LOL

I've ate through 2 sets of those MOOG swayer end-links. Need something better.

How much are you tightening them? The rubber should just bulge a little bit, you can’t tighten them too much or they’ll wear out fast.

Yikes

Rocket man, I know exactly what you’re talking about having made this mistake myself multiple times. The instructions say to only leave three or four threads exposed out the bottom of the barrel nut. Sort of a fail safe. At this point they are just starting to mushroom

 

[Tiki]

Non mushroom, just I-10

I thought he was talking about I-10, just not sure what that has to do with overtightening the endlinks?

Any updates? Still pleased with them or any complaints?
