reboot

hello, i've been looking for a rear subframe(including axles, arms, brakes and excluding LSD) from a GXL for my S5 T2. i have not seen any T2 in junkyards around my area, only S4 GXL's so my question is are the S4 GXL rear subframe any different than the S5 T2 subframe? i was told its the same subframe as the T2. but i didnt buy the GXL subframe because i noticed that the end links for the sways are different than those on my S5 T2. can anybody tell me what else is different between the two and if the different end links affect anything? thanks

S4 cars use different anti-sway bar end links than the S5 cars.S5 end links I believe bolt right to the S4 bars with no problem.I think someone said the S5 links are better.I think everything else is the same but I don't know for sure.

That would be stablizer bar links, not sway bar

so are the end links interchangeable? if so, i might just go ahead and pick up that S4 GXL for my S5 T2, any opinons?

reboot

^^ please

I'd buy a set of aftermarket ones. The stock ones are crap no matter which you get S4/S5

reboot

who makes aftermarket rear S5 end links?

reboot

stabilizer and sway bar are the same thing different wording just to clearify things ; )

BTW - the mazdatrix ones I believe are solid (ie race car only). I don't know of any polyurethane solutions for Series V cars on the subframe, swaybar, or sublink (body to subframe) end links. The Series IV cars have polyurethane replaceable swaybar end links and I **think** subframe end links.
