    Default Rear sway bar links are toast

    Alright, 6 months after putting on my Corksport RSB, the links are totally done.

    I was thinking of putting on some Moog ones, but i see that the MS3 compatible links are a little bit more beefy then the regular MZ3 units.

    MS3:


    Regular 3:


    AS we can see, the MS3 ones have a bigger mid shaft, and it appears to have a bigger joint (possibly cause they know people are gonna mess with it). Are these two interchangeable? Are the MS3 units prone to going bad as well?

    Thanks!

    There's no guarantee that those photos are the proper representation of the actual part. I just installed MOOG front links on mine and they were substantially thicker/beefier than OEM. A more worthy metric is to select links which have grease fittings IMO. Just my $0.02.
