Default Anyone have a problem w/ their sway bar endlinks coming out? I do.

I have a Type-r rear sway bar w/ Si endlinks. One of the enlinks keeps coming out, the one that connects to the sway bar. I was thinking maybe I installed the bar upside down. Anyone have pics of a type-r sway bar on an EK. Thanks, in advance.

are you using a Beaks Kit? If not, get one.

The BSQ kit is a subrame reinforcement. Which way should the nut on the endlink face? outwrds or inwards?

you cant install endlinks backwards.

The SI endlinks fit LOOSE in an ITR rear sway bar. I am not sure what the ESQ kit comes with but the beaks kit comes with solid bushing you put in the sway bar so that the SI endlinks fit snug and can't worm out.

use a washer in between your sway bar and nut, it may help to hold your endlink on.

Wil uses washers that are a specific size. If you get them too big, the nut won't thread on.

What if I use a regular 3/8's washer and use loctite or nyloc on the nut? That should hold.
