After seeing how they screwed everyone over who got their front and rear arms and had horrible post sale customer service I'd look at BMR, LSR, Hotchkis, Pedders, or Pfadt to name a few. They all have far better customer service and won't leave you pissed and bitter about your purchase if something goes wrong with a part.

I don't know about any of the bad customer service from Spohn as I haven't had any problems (yet?)... I have the Spohn sway bar and end links on my car...

What do I think of them? We'll the end links are a couple heim joints screwed together, kinda hard to screw that up... Do they work? Not really sure? But they aren't bent or broken yet, so I can only assume they do the job.

I went with the Spohn bar because I liked the stiffness settings better than the other bars available. I'm not a fan of going to stiff. I can definitely tell the bar works as advertised.

Spohn endlinks only work with their swaybars, but they are strong is hell. Will not fail on this car that's for sure, I had them but they couldn't work with the other brand bar I have.

I have the Spohn endlinks and they work with my Pfadt sway bars. The customer service is no problem. I got in a accident and one front endlinks was damaged. I called them and they sent out the new part no problem.

Why is that? They are supposed to be jigged to the same length as stock ones from the factory. They look almost the same as the BMR end links. I would think the only difference would be bolt size in the heims, and the bolt hole size in the different brands of bars.

Looks like they work on Pfadt sway bars from the post above

Cowboy1948 seems like your still looking for an answer on if they fit. I can tell you that Ive never seen them on a stock bar. I have seen them on only one other bar.

If you have any question feel free to call me. Ill try to answer any question you may have. Even not on my products. Just trying to help out another Camaro owner.
