Really like this, you can feel how much mechanical downforce this provides, only wish they'd include a bolt for the other end, would be a good idea to replace that when you're swapping this out.
4 years and 15k miles later, and these end links still hold up decently. The adjustments are still very smooth when I make minor adjustments to the height of the car However, the threads have gotten a bit rusty, and the ball joint was also a bit sticky. During the install of my new sway bars yesterday, I found that the ball joint rotated with the nut while trying to disconnect it. This caused some frustration as I had to find a durable pair of needle nose pliers, then grip the handle of those pliers with a vice grip, just to get enough force to hold the stud in place while ratcheting the nut off the end link.
If FM can implement some sort of locking nut system from the factory to prevent the ball joint from spinning while removing the nut, that'd be awesome. My plan for now is to instead add a pair of narrow nuts on the inner side of the ball joint to act as lock-nuts; end link > nut > nut > washer > sway bar > washer > nut
Thanks for the long-term follow-up review! Our end links do feature a 5mm Allen slot in the end of the ball joint thread - these are great for holding the ball joint stud while removing the nylon locking nuts. However, since these end links are under the car and often subjected to lots of dirt and grime, it's also a good idea to use a brass bristle brush to knock off the majority of the dirt and any surface rust that may have accumulated on the threads before attempting to remove the locking nut from the ball joint stud. If you run into any trouble, please contact our Customer Support team for help!
Just add described, perfect fit for my NA
After installing new suspension (Tecnas) on my '93 I finally replaced my original end links.
The links are very high quality and I wasn't prepared for the decrease in noise from the front and back of the car. Worth every penny!
1990 Miata: these end links are super simple to assemble and replace the stock end links without extra parts needed. I have aftermarket sway bars and these end links worked perfect to enhance the sway bar’s ability.
