OVERVIEW
SPL Parts Rear Endlinks for the BMW F8X and G8X use massive Teflon lined FK 1/2" bearings to give the highest load capacity for use with stiffer aftermarket sway bars. Custom heat treated chromoly high misalignment studs connect to the sway bar and offer extreme articulation capability of 65 degrees, which prevents the endlink from binding when different adjustment holes on an aftermarket bar are used.
The endlinks are length adjustable so preload can be taken out of the sway bars — preload that results from uneven settling of springs or uneven suspension heights after corner weighting. Black anodized 6061-T6 aluminum turnbuckles work with left and right hand threaded rod ends for simple, precise adjustment. These endlinks suit street and race applications alike.
