Sway bar end link broken...

I have just discovered the source of my suspension clunk....I have a Swift 24mm rear sway bar and the drivers side lower end link bolt is broken....it may have been corrosion or stress I am not sure...this is the 8'' strut that runs from the sway bar adjusting hole vertically upwards. Questions:

Is there a left and right part #

I should probably replace both sides correct?

Is there an uprade part? or should I just replace with stock?

The stock link sure looks like a poor fit angle etc...

thanks in advance..

Michael

My recommendation would be to go with more solid aftermarket endlinks if available ... replace both of them. I know Perrin makes an adjustable one, I just am not sure whether it for both front and rear. Call some of the vendors here and see if they know:

www.gtworx.com

www.gruppe-s.com

Goodluck and let us know what you find out.
