    Don't have to use allen key/socket like OEM for installation. Seems rugged and well made.

    Replaced both sides, had 2 different boxes. The 'plain' boxed part worked great, the grease fitting was on the socket at a perfect 90 degree angle to the rod and both ends could be greased without problems. The other box with the 'driveworks' logo printed all over it, the grease fitting was about 10 degrees from 90 (towards the rod) and the lower grease fitting, by the axle, CANNOT BE GREASED WHILE ON THE VEHICAL. A 45 degree grease fitting would fix said problem.

      Comments about Driveworks Suspension Sway Bar Link Kit:

      My 2008 Chrysler T/C started making clunking noises from the front suspension which was traced to worn sway bar links. The old ones were a bear to get off because of rusted bolts but these new ones went back on without a hitch. A perfect fit. The van rides and sounds like new again. For the money these Driveworks links are a great value.

          It's well made, the problem is the way the grease fittings are set up, you will never be able to grease the bottom fitting due to the half shaft being about an inch away. Grease it first and hope for the best, thank goodness for lifetime warranty

                Comments about Driveworks Suspension Sway Bar Link Kit:

                Bought these sway link to replace original parts on a 2002 Voyager when I replaced the struts on the front of the vehicle. The "MOOG" brand would have worked as well but I'm not planning on keeping this vehicle for more than a year. So I chose the cheaper brand, it works exactly the same. My mechanic recomended that I get a front end alignment after the struts and sway bars were installed. I had just put new tired on about a week before and I thought this would be a good idea. So get an alignment and save tour tires too.

                          I assume you are referring to the front damper ball joint housing. They screw into the base of the damper and the ball joint then screws into this housing.

                          Synthetic is Always best. After first greasing (When you see the rubber boot start bulging), one to two pumps of the grease gun every twenty thousand miles should make it last your van's lifetime

                          Based on the description of the part itself, it is for the front suspension; also, I believe the rear sway bars are shorter.
                          Hope this helped.
