Default Re: Stock Sway Bar End Links Length

If you're trying to find end links you just have to measure the width (diameter) of the swaybar itself... that's how they're sold. I've run into that problem recently because my Stang didn't have a front sway bar when I got it. I have yet to buy end links but I've asked and they told me to measure... I think they come in 1 5/8, 1 3/8. Yours being an 83 may be smaller if it is an 83 swaybar... should take any year though I think.

End links. I just ran into this similar/ same issue with a 86 GT. I purchased the blue MOOG end links pn K700432 (thermoplastic) similar to what I took off. TO answer your question I just measured what I took off next to what I haven't put on. Aprox 1+1/4" between. I don't know if it will work out? I have heard that the factory had them too long. However the bar when all is said and done needs to be level, with whatever links you have on. How did your 88 turn out? I am posting this April 2017.
