How can this swaybar work?

It also appears that instead of buying a $110 Garret SS line kit (water and oil) I can make my own from AN fittings and stainless line for about $60-70

Talk to Andrew (asteele) about this. He did all of his fuel lines and shit in his accord. Looks amazing, I'm trying to talk him into doing it for my car.

There are tons of types of endlinks at both of those websites. This panhard bar dosn't see much movement outsde ot the up and down. Its sole purpose (or so it seems) is to keep the axel aligned as it moves up and down. Do you guys think I could get the "general purpose" steel ends for like $8.50 or should I go for the $26 each hardened? I don't want alum. and I don't think any of the exotic $60+ ones are called for either.

that is not the purpose of a PHB, a PHB locates the axel side to side. ALL PHB's will cause the rear axel to NOT stay aligned as it moves up and down, however it is very minimal, that's what a WATTS link solves.

You will NOT want to use $9 rod ends for a PHB, those will take a beating.

What I meant by "keeps axel aligned" was that as the axel goes up and down the bar limits the movement side to side (pretty much what you just said) By its design it pushes it a little to one side though (as it travels)? It makes sense by looking at it. That is likely why my right rear tire rubs the paint off the shock and the left one does not.
