    Its the same guy.

    My bolts are installed right. I am still yet to find any information on if they are indeed made by Moog or not.

    Yup one bad review. Let's not act like defective parts don't exist but He's the dumbass for not noticing that the bolt was upside down. Had he it would of been a simple swap. Won't discourage me from getting the RK series.

    They will fit you just have to switch to 97-03 end links AFAIK.

    they will fit.

    as far as sway bar end links that depends on what bar you have, links to the strut or links to the lca's.

    if yours are on the strut you have to change the sway bar to make them work off the lca's.

    They will fit and you'll have to do no modifications what so ever. You might want to look into doing the strut mounts as well.

    They are but they connect to the strut so swapping the lca just makes it so you can upgrade easily in the future if ever needed.

    So you do need 97-03 end links then.

    Hello,I see this was started back abt 2 yrs ago but being new here i see this thread now. No one has commented on your rims . You mentioned in the first post that you polished them...They look like they were chromed...what did you use and did you use a drill with a buffing wheel? Those are stock GT rims? My rims looks the same but they're nowhere near as shiny...

    Alright so since my car is clunking away lately I have decided to do a nearly full revamp of the suspension. The only think not getting changed are the struts as they are still working fine. What I plan on changing are my control arms, trailing arm's, tie rod ends, and both front and rear sway bar links. All parts below are Moog. Installation will have to wait until I go upstate for the summer as my uncle will have his mechanics at the dealership install them for free. I wont have a shop do it as the labor alone will cost more than all of the parts I order combined. I will likely place the order in a month or two before I head upstate. The total comes under $280 with free shipping.

    Here is a screenshot of what I got along with the links to the parts so you can check them out yourself and tell me what you think.

    Tie Rod Ends- http://www.ebay.com/itm/181312449057

    Trailing Arms- http://www.ebay.com/itm/181373072051

    Rear Sway Bar Link- http://www.ebay.com/itm/131156236804

    Front Sway Bar Link- http://www.ebay.com/itm/130467772131

    Control Arms Right and Left

    Okay so I plan on going to add sway bar bushings as well, since I have the Comp G with FE3 suspension, what size bushings do I need?

    Moog has three types, .80", 1.18", and another for 1.34" suspension.
