My suspension woes.

Well I ordered a sway bar bushing kit from clay a week or so ago, and today I decided to do the swap. Only someone forgot to tell me the endlinks are not factory!

So the bushings are the wrong size...

I'm still trying to decide if I want to use what I can from the set I bought and just buy individual bushings for the endlinks. I think thats what I'll do..

I had a "clunk" in the front passenger side I thought was the ball joints, but I had the ball joints checked and they were find. So I didnt know what to think. Currently the entire sway bar is in the bed of my truck and the clunk is gone (look at the pictures. Can you figure out what the clunk way? )

Anyway. Does anyone else feel like I should replace them soon?

The first three are the passenger side. The last one is the driver side.

I went with Moogs that are grease-able. Are the ones you bought from RiffRaff grease-able?
