Sway bar/end link question

Hey all..My buddy and i are attending a Lordco trade show in Vancouver in April..If i can find them at a good price id like to pick up a set of Hotchkis sway bars...Now my issue. Ive been reading a few posts about guys breaking end links...Im running all stock parts and wonder if just being too paranoid...I dont track the car or drive it as hard as others, but the extra flatness may be nice.

Opinions and advice always nice..Thanks.

Our stock endlinks are actually pretty good, it should be able to handle it pretty well.

Replace the end links with new OEM end links when installing the sway bars. Aftermarket is a waste since they have their problems and they're a lot more money compared to OEM. I had gotten all 4 for my car for under $70 from InfinitiPartsUSA.com

i bought aftermarket endlinks ( PowerGrid ) .. I've heard stories of oem endlinks breaking because they are not meant to be run with aggressive/thicker sway bars with multiple settings.. if u run ur hotchkis sways at a harder setting you are pre loading ur oem endlinks..

$315 shipped is not bad for piece of mind.

if it makes u feel better.. i ran my oem endlinks for 3 years with my Stillen Sways at the medium setting with no issues.. i figured it was only a matter of time until something happened so i changed them out last week..
