I'd be interested to hear people's experience with this as well. I see Turner Motorsports sells both shorter and adjustable sway bar endlinks and would like to see what sizes people have gone with for shorter endlinks or people's reviews of the adjustable variety.

Yes, I use adjustable sway bar end links. They are used to adjust the position/orientation of the end of sway bar so you get the full stiffness and range of motion of the bars without binding - basically they adjust the bars with changes in ride height so the bar remains in its stock orientation.

I'm using them with my RDSport bar. To my surprise they probably weren't necessary with my setup (using stock style springs with stock spring perch in stock location) because there was virtually zero preload with the stock links. I can slide them in and out of the mounting holes with the car on the ground with no resistance just like my adjustable ones. Nice to know M paid attention to details like that at the factory.

For anything that moves the perch/attachment on the damper you will need adjustment though.

They come in various lengths so you should double check what you need. I had adjustable links for Stock sway bar with my AST's but they ended up being too long when I changed to a Dinan Front sway bar. I like Bimmer world's links, they seem more robust. Say that without bias, the whole ass end of my car is from TMS.
