Default NEW Endlinks From PERRIN Performance

> NEW! Endlinks From PERRIN Performance <


CONSTRUCTION
PERRIN Sway bar endlinks are machined from solid 6061T6 aluminum and use our custom polyurethane bushings. The low profile design of PERRIN endlinks allow for ample clearance for even the largest diameter sway bars. Polyurethane bushings are a great alternative to someone wanting the race car type part, without the added maintenance or harshness of a spherical bearing type endlinks.

BUSHINGS
PERRIN endlinks feature 95a durometer custom made polyurethane bushings. We choose a stiff 95a durometer material to provide a feel similar to a solid spherical bearing endlink but without the harshness or noise that can be associated with them after years of use. Polyurethane is extremely durable, nearly maintenance free and less expensive then bearing type endlinks.

WEATHER RESISTANT
PERRIN polyurethane bushing endlinks were designed for those living in climates where your vehicle is commonly exposed to corrosive elements. The combination of aluminum, polyurethane, and yellow zinc plated hardware make PERRIN performance endlinks very weather resistant and unaffected by wet climates and road salt.

5 YEAR WARRANTY
PERRIN Performance warrants to the original purchaser, all PERRIN products to be free from defects in material and workmanship within a sixty (60) months period from the date of purchase. *Some exclusions apply

LOWER PRICE
The polyurethane cost less to make vs. the spherical bearings so you pay less.

How much real world testing is in this new design? I like the idea of more clearance but the bushings stick out pretty far. Seems like a lot of pressure on a small part.

I only ask because I have a pair of seized perrin end links on my car right now and if I was going to go back to you guys I'd want to know the bushings aren't going to push out or something like that.

I'm interested in your new Heavy Duty products.
What kind of deal would you be willing to give on a 07STI rear and front Endlink +Mount+swaybar kit?

It's a good deal. I contacted a vendor that carries your stuff and it was more. LOL!

Hey guys, I've had a set of these endlinks for about a year now on my daily driver, and they've been working great! I take a bumpy and twisty backroad to and from work every day and haven't had any problems at all.

Jeff has had them on his 08 STI even longer.

I installed these NEW poly endlinks front and rear after removing the PERRIN spherical endlinks.I must say they DO NOT perform as well in twisty turns, hard cornering.I can feel a difference between the poly and spherical.The car stays flatter with spherical.
Ill keep the poly endlinks on during the winter and use the spherical in summer when aggressive driving is done.
Both sets of endlinks are being used with WHITELINE 22f/20r swaybars.
Thanks again PERRIN for great products

That's exactly what I wanted to know... I'll stick with noisy, but functional...

I also am worndering what the lifespan difference is between their "heavy duty (stainless)" endlinks vs. their regular steel (that seize up rather quickly...).

The PERRIN XD endlinks will last a lot longer than the standard endlinks if you are driving on salted roads. We made those endlinks specifically for that!

The new poly endlinks will also work fine in the salt too, since they don't have any steel parts in the endlink that can rust and clunk.

Can you quantify "a lot longer?" How has this been tested? Help justify the extra $100 cost per set.

I would say that the XD endlink bearings will last 10 times longer than the normal endlinks. But depending on the road conditions, the teflon liner might wear out quicker, but the endlinks will work fine, but be noisy.
