Nobody - so don't make a lengthy post making it to sound all scientifc and talking about proof, hypothesis, etc. when there is none. Disclaimer - I run aftermarket front/rear sway bars and aftermarket end links.
Yes you can! It's the internet! I have aftermarket front/rear sways and end links. I don't understand really how the end links can impact/do much w/r to feel b/c they are just resisting compression, not side-to-side load. I replaced my rears with Moogs b/c "I was in there/greasable/cheap" and the fronts to have adjustable ones for managing preload.
Even better is when folks actulaly do properly test things in this community controlling variables etc. and folks will argue that it's crap but if someone says "I did XYZ and it fixed ABC" with nothing more than that they repeat it adnauseum as gospel.
Talk about peak turd mood today/case of the Mondays!
how dare you
I am in your camp. FSB seemed more noticeable when I did it and already had a RSB, springs/dampers, etc. There is a road with an uneven section with "bumps" that you drive between oblique to their axis if that makes sense....it's like getting rocked side to side on a roller coaster after the FSB...as in no seat belt my head would go through the side window!
I have absolutely no dog in this silly endlink argument, but there is definitely lateral load (if you're taking turns hard, which is kinda the point of a RSB):
Yeah I get it but it can't be too much as they are so thin you'd think they'd bend pretty easy/break if that was the case. Basically as I understand it/visualize it, as the car turns/chassis twists the bar is a spring resisting the force with one side pushing down forcing the other side up so the twist force is controlled by the brakets/bushings in your pic and the end links are just pushing/pulling in more or less veritcal plain.
A lateral load that has a balljoint and and lower bushing that flex’s in that same lateral direction though. The sway bar it’s self is “twisting” to create results of a sway bar.
