I've had mine on for a looooooooooooong time. Like over 15,000 miles.

From what I've learned, a 22mm bar can cause damage if:

1. You have no rear lower tie bar.
2. Your spring rates are soft as pillows and you happen to auto-x with this set-up.
3. You don't keep the bushings lubed.

sovereign82 is an unknown quantity at this point
SlammedBlueEM2 = pwned

Why are you even posting in this tread. You said the endlinks never break. Now all of a sudden, you've determined what causes endlinks to break....even though you said they never break yesterday! Please.

You must not have read my other post in the other thread. You should go back and read before you think I got pwned.

P.S. I can post where ever I want and unlike a lot of people on this forum, I can admit when I am wrong.

Keep in mind that I also had a friend who broke an endlink but you wouldn't know about that since you're only judging from one post in one endlink thread.

naw, i don't think they are better, well i don't think that it has to be really lubedl that much since there are rings that hold the bar in place next to the bushings, the progress 22mm has a solid tie bar(plate) so it doesn't mess with that part... and umm, you can say i drive if i auto X since i drive the 110 freeway from the start at arroyo parkway threw highland park and into downtown LA...

The hotchkins endlinks cost like 165 shipped... dam, but i guess that i for all four and these loook really duable and shouldn't break ever again...

and yea i have a stock suspention but that will change once i get my rims soon then get my tein flex... but thats like 2 months at the earliest
