Swaybar endlinks
Why the hell do my swaybar endlinks keep braking? I just put new ones all the way around 8 months ago cause some of them broke, and now my left front one broke again!!!
Any suggestions.

Maybe you're tightening them up too much.
If rubber bushings: Only tighten until rubber middle JUST comes to about the same diameter as the spacers.
If Poly bushings: Only tighten until all moving slack is taken up between the pieces, then about 1/2 turn more.
That's all you need.
Hope this helps (Much less expensive than Heim joints too!)
