In this video I show how to install IPSCO billet aluminum sway bar brackets with the Energy Suspension Polyurethane bushings.

These make a HUGE difference to the handling in the car and make it handle much better and ride more flat in the corners! Was well worth the effort.;)

Thanks! Its nothing expensive or fancy. Its just a $14 Harbor Freight ball joint splitter. I wouldn't use it on a joint/boot you plan to reuse at it tends to tear the boot but it does the trick.

What makes the end links you are using an "upgrade?' Or do you just call every part you put on the car an "upgrade" regardless of if they have any design improvement over what you took off?

lol fair argument which I review in the video.

I outline that the rear moog end links are same as oem no difference but the fronts are considered an upgrade as the design has grease fittings to be able to easily lubricate the joints as standard with many of the other oem joints on the viper.

Nice job again. My shopping cart just keeps getting bigger. I think I'm going to just enjoy the car for the spring and early summer and then will probably tackle a lot of this in the late summer where I don't plan on driving the car as much.
