Rear strut/sway bar endlink bolt replacement

Hey everyone,

I couldn't find this info anywhere and thought it might be of use to other people who plan to run their FD without a rear sway bar permanently/semi-permanently. The endlink that goes from the sway bar to the lower rear strut mount uses a m12 - 1.25 x 70mm bolt. I'll be using a m12 - 1.25 x 80mm class 10.9 hex bolt to replace the endlink but anything at or above 70mm should work depending on your suspension setup. The original nut will work if you want to reuse it.

Good tip. IMO the rar sway bar should just be permanently removed. Lighten up the front one and increase spring rates all around. The handling will be much improved,
