sway bar end link question

[N2FORD]

I was looking at sway bar end links and discovered they are basically gone. The bushings are all chewed up looking and both bolts are bent at the top. I searched and could not find the answers I was looking for. Is any one else having this problem? Is there a better end link kit than stock? I have a job 1 4wd ST with a TT. I noticed that a 03 2wd had a different looking end link. Is that a revised kit, or will one of the Energy Suspension universal kits work better?

Are you talking about the front anti-sway bar links?

When my front ones finally bit the dust, I got some new Moog ones. The Moog ones lasted maybe a couple of weeks. I think the stock ones were better for me with the 35" tires.

It's extremely common. Same endlink since 95 on the explorer, and 98 on the ranger. It's rubber, it wears out. If you replace it with stock, check rockauto.com

Yes the fronts, I guess the TT just eats them up and bent the bolts.
