Sway bar link bushings for S5 models

Hello, i tried to look for an answer in older posts before posting this but i couldn't so here it goes...
I was replacing my inner tie rods and noticed my sway bar link bushings in the front were worn out. I looked for bushings but only found replacements for s4 models.. They are a bit different. So im wondering if buying s4 links would solve my issue... I mean there are RB adj ones for my model but dont quite need all that just looking for stock replacements since im buying the whole suspension bushing kit already. Thanks in advance for any help!

with ur current post count, may i suggest moving into the main section of the forum. instead of posting this in the new member tech, u would get more experienced viewers and quicker response with this in the 2nd gen section. i can move it there if u wish.

I made my own if that helps?

2 female rose joints with some threaded bar in the middle, I was told they would squeak if the grease was washed out but I've not had any problems yet.

You can use S4 endlinks if your S5 ones are toast.
