If you were to measure from a level floor to the frame mount and the endlink mount at the end of the bar, both should be the same distance from the floor, that is the most ideal position for the bar. Any deviation from it will make the bar less effective. However, it's hard to get it perfect because of ride height or other obstructions(control arms, tie rods and etc.) You just want to get those measurements as close as you possibly can.

is there an ETA for FK specific endlinks? would love to try a set...

Never knew this. Thanks for the heads up.

So nothing works for x-drive? What would you recommend for an x-drive 335i sedan on Bilstein Sport shocks and H&R sports?

What about sonic tuning coilovers? Will these fit? The OEM ones were longer I believe. But then again the sonic tuning Endlinks were adjustable

I have had calls in the past...what is the length measured from center of the joint to the center of the other joint?

Again, it's all about the length. Need measurements.

Harold,

Swapped out my 335 with these endlinks (worked great compared to the FK garbage) and now I am in a F10 535xi.

I just lowered my car 1" with ACS springs while still using the factory sway bar and shocks. Would i need longer or shorter endlinks to bring the sway bar geometry back to stock or is it not even altered in my situation?

Any idea if these would work on my car? Seems like most aftermarket endlinks looks the same where it only differs by length. I can measure the stock endlink for you if needed.

Alan,

Longer links for lowered cars. Just make sure the ends are the same as your 335i ones so what I have is compatible.

So what is the original geometry of the sway bar? There are multiple bends, is the final bend where the hole is suppose to be horizontal? Should it be tilted up slightly, down slightly or straight .

It's the end of the bar, that distance to the ground and the distance of the center of the center bushings to the ground, you want those two measurements as close as possible.
