Im going to change my rear anti roll bar but the new one has holes to bolt the link bars like the front ones, so cannot put the original ones.
what have people here used?
Thanks.

As far as it reads standard stuff is good to use (the alloy drop link)

Did you have a roll bar to start with?

maybe not much help but whiteline in oz and a few places in the US (IE, VAC, GC, TMS, AKG ) sell links that work with aftermaket bars front and rear. i would probably avoid ones that have rod ends without a protective boot for street use as they get dirt and grit and end in them and up being noisy after about 6-12 months.
