WTB: Bolt/Nut that holds endlinks to sway bars.

Hi all.

I am looking for the bolt/nut that holds the rear endlink and sway bar together. I don't really have a picture, but yeah. I think the two both have 12mm heads. I also need the two complimenting pieces for the Helix read endlink. They are the two pieces that compliment the spherical bearing thing.

Let me know if you have some. Not really in a rush, but sooner is better.

TIA.

Why don't you just go order one online from www.mcmaster.com - I once made a panhard bar for a 3700lb ESP car using McMaster Carr parts.

Type "bolt" in the search box, scroll down to metric bolt, you'll want Class 9.8 or greater for shear resistance (I highly recommend getting the strongest damn bolt you can, grade 10.9 cost more but may be worth it). Choose the thread size (measure your hole), partially threaded option, and zinc plated for corrosion resistance. Then get some matching nuts, and double-nut it.

It is not worth it driving around looking for a bolt that fits and more important would be finding a strong enough bolt to withstand the shear forces from a swaybar. =)

Cheers,
Andy

Maybe. I figure I should just get the right bolt and yeah. Can't be that much anyways...

Bump.

Cool.

Bump.

Someone let me know if you have some. Or I'll just have to buy it from the dealership.

Kevin,

I'm pretty sure I have what you need. Especially the Helix parts.

Bump. I think the LIC guys can cover me for the endlink bolt. I just need the Helix spherical portion insert. I have one here, but I'll probably need another one. I can post pics later if you guys don't know what I am talkink about.
