Re: Spohn Spherical Rod End Sway Bar End Links
They look cool, but do you really need them? What would be the benefit? I know a lot of modern cars have rod-end bearing end links.
I made my own for a Ford product (with leaf springs) that has an after market rear sway-bar, but the reason I did is because of a weird angle that wasn't working well with the standard type links. Not sure of the benefit on a thirdgen but would be interesting to hear from an expert...

Re: Spohn Spherical Rod End Sway Bar End Links
Back when I still had stock suspension under my car, I had adjustable LCA with the rod ends. Main advantage was the adjustability. The rod ends just gave more freedom of movement to prevent any binding. A street car can get away just fine with the rubber or poly bushing but a competition car should have something a little better.
