txwerks, I'm about the place an order for the powergrid endlinks - front and rear. Just wanted to make sure I'll be getting the correct nuts and that these will work on a car that is lowered around 1.5"...

thank you!

I hope these things are in stock because I need some now. One of my Promini front end links disintegrated today. I heard it come apart and then I saw the rod bouncing along on the highway.....fortunately, it didn't bounce up into the truck behind me.

FWIW I installed the powergrid endlinks front & rear yesterday. The actual install was easy (no problems with the nuts ) but adjusting them, with the wheels on and the car on the ground, was a bit of a challenge; it gets kinda cramped under the car (hands, arms, suspension, tools :impatient )... but I think I got things adjusted and tightened correctly.
At the same time I reduced the rebound on my rear Konis so this might explain why I felt the ride was smoother, with perhaps a bit more understeer (which I can dial out with the front shocks and rear swaybar).
I bought these because I wanted something beefier than stock, and to adjust for the 1.5" drop on my car.
