The front end stock sway bar end links are ball joints. There is no play in them.
The only way to make the the front sway tighter is to use tighter bushings on the ends of the links & the bushing that hold the bar.
Therefore, the best sway bar end links are OEM.

So energy suspension does not make bushings for the enlinks just the sway bar bushings 20mm I think. I guess oem will have to do and I will put the energy suspension on the bar itself. For the second post not the rear sway bar and you can get the hardware brand new for $50 for the bar.

I'm in the process of assembling parts to rebuild my front end (along with a drop). I went to Car Quest. They use MOOG products which have had a good reputation.
CCH K9824-Sway Bar End Link Kit= $37.82
The guy was kind enuff to give me a discount because I bought everything except the inner tie-rods (everything all together would have been around $310.00(!))
Still, everything else came to $198.52

The best ones are made with Teflon lined Hiem joints. They can also be adjusted, to put the sway bar back in its original location on lowered cars. something like this:

I think you do have to put them together. I havnt seen someone sell them specifically for the Max. With some Googling Im sure you can find the stuff needed. Check other Nissans to see whats out there already.
