Front and Rear Spherical Sway bar linkages

[IS]

Hey guys! I've been designing sway bar linkages for Porsches for quite some time. (In fact still sell them for 944's on ebay). Nothing but positive testimonials.

Anyways, I finally decided to break down and design a set for my new e30. Kind of pissed me off that no one sold any kind of aftermarket linkage for the rear swaybar, especially when lots of people run the 14.5mm m3 bar opposed to aftermarket swaybars.

I only use the best components (ex: zinc plated, teflon lined rod ends) and don't cut corners.

If there is any interests I can sell a complete set for the price of just the front links from GC - $120.

Here are some pictures. Thanks for looking.

my ST rear linkage is like that, but i dont have anything like that for the front.

What would just a set of fronts cost?

Nice jackstands. I have similar links on my aftermarket sway bars and have ben happy with them

[IS]

I'll do $60 shipped for the fronts only.

[bimmer8604]

What about for those of use running the longer M3 style front links?

Oh, btw- for those on here who dont know, would you mind elaborating on the benefits of your links versus new oem links?

Also would they fit the stock sway bars also? I know u mentioned they fit the m3 rear, just wanted to confirm.

[IS]

Yes, they fit the 12 and 14.5mm rear bars. They are both 12mm OD on the very ends.

As for the front links - they will fit any front swaybar that's attached using the link in the picture: I'm pretty sure that includes all e30s except the m3.

As for the benefits:
Allows for pre-load adjustment.
Doesn't have any rubber to deflect therefore you're using the full effectiveness of the bar
These allow a more linear swaybar response, as the stock links give before the swaybar has any input.
The spherical rod ends prevent the swaybar from binding, while still maintaining a rigid setup.
Teflon lining on rod ends ensures long life.
These should last longer than the OE links, as there is no rubber to fatigue - the rod ends are maintenance free and and have minimal wear

Nice response, thanks.

More interested in the 62 in the background.

It's my friend's bus. He also has double and single cab pick ups...and a 911 race car.

How long will these be available? Mine need replaced but its not at the top of my list for "things to do" as of now, but I'll definitely pick up a set down the road (spring?).

[IS]

Sure, just PM me. I always have hundreds of dollars of this hardware around my house so I'm not going anywhere.

I'd be interested in a set of M3 style front links if you were to make them (the ix uses the same design).
