On the new link there holes on both sides as to where the stock piece has one end closed with the bolt on the other side. Am I missing something here how do they connect ?

They changed the design of the endlinks since I installed mine. I'm not sure but it looks like you are missing a bushing and a bolt for the bottom hole. Call your vendor ASAP before they close for christmas.

Ya they are closed today so ill have to wait until Wednesday.

I've got the rubber bushings I just didnt have it in for the picture.

As for the bolts I'm guessing I use the stock bolt from the front leftover endlinks to bolt the endlink to the axel and then I need the missing jam nuts I guess to connect to the swaybar.

Well at least it's drivable kind of disappointed though. Thanks for confirming what I had thought.

You should have hour glass bushings and sleeves. You will need to reuse the factory bolts for one end. If your missing the bolts for the other end.

I'll ship them when we're back on Wednesday. In the mean time, if you can't wait

Any Home Depot or loweds will have bolts. It's 12mm. Take the factory one in for length. I don't remember what it is

Yes I have the bushings and sleeves and my leftover bolts for the endlinks at the axel. so I'm only missing the evo jam nut bolt ? Not sure exactly what it looks like but I believe it's the part that connects the endlink to the swaybar. Thanks for the reply ill give the shop a call Wednesday to confirm the parts will be sent out.

You should have removed the jam nut from the factory bolt

Ok I may be using the incorrect term. If you look at my very first picture the stock endlink has an open end and a closed end. Your aftermarket endlink has two open ends so I only have the stock hardware for the open end because the stock closed end does not come out or am I missing something here.
