I'm looking in to purchasing a new set, but I'm wondering which is better?  I've heard bad things about the Whiteline's endlinks causing problems, but alot of people have the Whitelines.  As for the ST sway bars, I haven't heard anything.  What are your opinions and any suggestions?

bad things about Whiteline swaybars endlinks causing problems?
news to me. Whiteline swaybars have adjustable endlinks the only problem I could see happening is someone setting the endlink to the stiffest setting and starting to get unibody creak due the extreme roll stiffness.
I would take Whitelines over the ST's any day of the week. Adjustability on your roll stiffness is cool. Also I am not a big fan of ST never have been and that goes all the way back to having ST springs in my Datsun 510.

More like the endlinks were a bad design... was reading a thread from FA.  Take a look and tell me if anyone has encountered the same problem.  Thanks for the info by the way.

The w/l endlinks aren't the best design, but the adjustability makes up for the slight inconvenience IMO. &nbsp;The only feature that neither bar has that I wish were there is length-adjustable end links that could be adjusted to eliminate static pre-load on the bar.

I saw a 240 last weekend with whiteline bars, and he had made custom endlinks. &nbsp;He was saying the endlinks that came with the bar were crap. &nbsp;Wish I had gotten pics of them.. &nbsp; <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>

If you wish to forego a small amount of adjustability (you can't use all 5 front positions, just 3) then you can just use the stock hardware with the Whiteline bars. &nbsp;Personally I think the issues people are having is a bunch of crap. &nbsp;Mine work great.
