    what is the difference between a sedan endlink and a wagon endlink?

    Is it just the size, or is it the diameter of the bolts used?

    You make your own, eh?
    Did you make a DIY endlink thread?

    Are you making some for sale?

    I ended up modifying some STi links and they fit pretty tight now. I had to sleeve the part that attaches to the control arm. But its worth it, I have a 27mm fsb on my wagon

    Wagon endlinks are plastic. The same ones used on the 98~01 2.5 RS (and many other subaurs).

    Sedans from 2002+ have metal pillowball endlinks that you would be a complete retard for 'upgrading'. Unless you break one, you do not need to change them. Even if you break one, a stock replacement one is only $55.

    STi's, certain Foresters, most Legacys from 2000+ and all Tribeccas have the same style rear endlinks. The Tribecca has a much larger and tougher front endlink the same build style as the other sedans.

    yes but unless you have access to a CNC machine or a mill it would not be easy. therefore no DIY. I plan to offer it to all wagons later because of the awkward mount the car has and if you lower it mor than 1/2" it is even worst.

    if you have a 27 FSB and the endlink is canted you will break the endlink eventually
