Evo X Sway Bar Endlinks Bolts

I would like to know if the bolts loosening on aftermarket sway bar links are still an issue?

I would like to run a square spring rate with a stiffer sway in the rear. After reading post after post of the bolts loosening with the aftermarket links, I am considering going with a higher spring rate in the rear than the front to compensate for running the stock sway bars.

Sway bars and springs are not the same thing. They do work together, but stiffer on one is not the same as stiffer on the other.

I've never had an issue with end links loosening up when installed properly.

As long as you use an allen wrench while tightening to spec, they don't come loose. Only real issue is factory end links bending with aftermarket sway bars. That's why some upgrade the endlinks as well.
