Default Corsport Adjustable Endlinks

I bought these because I needed new endlinks, and I was never quite sure how they are adjustable. They didn't come with instructions. Anyone know how to adjust them?

I haven't ever used the Corsport endlinks myself, but I did find this:

Apparently, you loosen the nut in the middle of the endlink to adjust them. Once everything is adjusted, you tighten the nut back to lock everything in place. Hope this helps.

Thank you.

Yes I understand you have to loosen/tighten the nut, but I don't know which way is which. Like which way makes the handling stiffer?

That isn't how they adjust.

You adjust length and the angle between the ends. There is no way an endlink (other than a blade type) can adjust swaybar stiffness.

I think adjustable means you can use them with different sway bars, not that they control stiffness. Stiffness is going to come from the size of the swaybar.....I think.

Correct, unless you have a race car with blade style links. In which case, you rotate them to change stiffness. That should be the only exception.
