sportwagon Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I saw these on AVO's website... I'm think of getting them since they are only $99 fornt or Rear... Just thought I'd see if anyone has tried them yet? I've got the AVO adjustable spherical bearing endlinks now... and I'll never buy another set of endlinks with bearings again... However... I'm not at all oposed to AVO... these endlinks are a decent deal!

RaGe Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 i was curious myself. there is a dude from canada selling similar endlinks. Bump for some info. OTM. Sorry I didn't mean to start a war which mainly forum people is all about . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boostsr20 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I'd like to know also. I had the second ones you posted, with the bearing.... They sucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy05 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Yeah I had the bearing ones as well, but never put them on ... and after a year the rubber was cracked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neurodancer Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I guess I'll be a test mule! Keep us updated -- I have Cobbs on now and I can see why they have discontinued them. I had clunking right after install, tightened them as much as possible and thought the problem was solved and they are noisy again after just a couple months of driving. They sound like someone is taking a ball peen (sp?) hammer to the wheel well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paranoid56 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 you guys should contact tom over at kartboy. he might have something that will work for you, as those top ones look similar to the ones he already makes. Shane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportwagon Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 The price is very nice... well compared to others (perrin, cobb and Kartboy, too) that is why I'm interested. I didn't know that they discontinued the cobb ones though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostjunkie Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 $100/pair is the same price as Kartboys. I'd go with the tried and true Kartboys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportwagon Posted March 27, 2008 Author Share Posted March 27, 2008 I thought the Kartboy were only a special price for $215/all four... Too late anyway... I ordered the AVO ones! At least I'll be able to provide feedback about them and see if they are comparable to other brands like Kartboy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Island Legacy Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Let us knwo about the AVO Ones my front ones are on there way out as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayoutwest Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 LOL ... I literally JUST had the dealer take off the old AVO links today... they SUCK! Noisy and one of the bolts actually was stripped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportwagon Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 The whole thing is plastic? I doubt it... looks like metal to me (painted)... but I'll know for sure in a couple of days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportwagon Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 I've got them now... Definitely metal... Nice quality feel to them and a whole boat load of hardware included... There are multiple types of sway bar connections that all of the hardware can be used for... Too bad the instructions are in japanese... Pictures are universal though and I should be able to figure it out based on the diagrams alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportwagon Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 A small note... after looking at the pictures above... the rubber/poly bushings shipped to me is black, not yellow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonardo Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 On a parenthesis, would I install the adjustable ones all the way down (retracted) on a lowered car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportwagon Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 I have an update - my front endlinks (orange solid ones) are NOT doing well after about eight months of being on the car... just noticed that the poly bushings are ripped and that one of them pulled all the way through the metal.
