Sway bar end link replacement - shorter?
Just wondering if anyone has replaced their sway bar end links after lowering their e60?
It is an extremely tight fit and would like a shorter link to fit better.
Any help would be appreciated

What all do you gain by having adjustable links?

i have Coilovers on my car so the mounting point for the sway bar link is about 2" lower than stock. having a shorter link takes the "pre-load" of the sway bar that the standard length link puts on it.

It's really not necessary unless you are slamming or bagging your car.
