Need Stabilizer Bar Links, Which to Order?
 

So I got my oil changed today and told the guy about a "jingling" sound when I go over bumps. Then he looked at the stabilizer bar links and said they looked bad and need to be replaced, which would eliminate the sound. Looking on eBay there are inexpensive ones from a company called MAS Industries ($15 for a pair). Then RockAuto has ACDelco parts which are slightly more expensive ($23 for a pair plus shipping). Checked my local dealer site and price for a single one was is $45. Has anyone had to replace them or ever use like the MAS parts? Just curious if anyone has thoughts before I order any, or if for this part its necessary to go OEM.

Buy the Moog ones from Rock Auto

^what he said

Is this the sway bar end links?

Make sure to MOOG ones that can be greased and you very well might have to cut the old ones off using cutting tool

George - what are you talking about? Stabilizer bar, sway bar - same thing. They don't need grease.

Anyone against ordering on eBay? Just found listings advertising each Moog link for $16 shipped. Ends up costing about the same as the RockAuto ACDelco ones (there's no Moog listed there wither for my I30 or the Maxima). I looked on a Moog vendor site and it said the part numbers were for an SE only, but I don't see how that could make a difference. The Moog P/Ns it looks like I have to order are K90432 and K90431

I would say order them they look all good as in fit met worst that can happen is 50$ down the drain but if they work then score! Tell us how they were

I don't see how they could SE specific when it would only be stiffer suspension, and there's no I30 SE. eBay seller (wizardautoparts) has 99.7% positive feedback so it looks reputable and the description says it fits the I30 fine. Guess I'll order them later today and put them on when they get here. $32 for ones everyone on here is recommending doesn't seem too bad.

Moog does make a grease(able) end link. I have them on my car

Get the Moog ones. It does not matter where you buy them from. They will come with a little grease in them already. I have used those on many Maximas and they work great.

The SE comes with a larger sway bar than other models. I think the SE is 23 mm and others are 22. I'm pretty sure they use the same end links though

Looked on Moog's actual site and the part numbers matched up for my car so I ordered them off eBay. Should get here next week, then I'm just not sure when they'll get put on. Thanks for all the insight, guys! I actually saw someone's review of the link of Amazon where they said it eliminated what I keep hearing.
