Suspension how to adjust alta endlink to level the sway bar?
how to adjust alta endlink to level the sway bar?
just installed alta front and rear endlink together with my Tein suspension.
knew should adjust the endlink length in order to level the sway bar for a lowered car, but found the alta looks same long as stock ones, which cannot make my sway bar back to normal angle, leveled.
anyone can help me or how you adjust them?
thanks a lot!

Loosen the two lock nuts at the top and bottom of the endlink. Then turn the center section to make it longer/shorter.
If you're happy with your ride heights and alignment then you'll also want to remove the preload from the swaybar. Put the car on ramps or something so that both wheels (either front pair or rear pair) are loaded. Then get under there and adjust the swaybar endlink so the swaybar isn't preloaded. You only have to mess with one endlink. Loosen the lock nuts and twist the center section all the way one way until it "binds". Then count the turns as you turn it back the other way until it "binds". Then go back the other way half the amount of turns you just counted.
