That's the problem these solve. Fixed-length links on a car that's been lowered or fitted with a different bar put preload into the sway bar before you've even moved, which means the car is fighting itself before you turn the wheel. These Progress adjustable end links let you dial that out completely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy Preload Matters More Than People Think\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHere's what's actually happening. Your sway bar is a torsion spring, and it should be doing nothing at rest. Load the car in a corner and it twists to resist roll. That's the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBut if your end links are the wrong length for your ride height or your bar, the bar is already twisted while the car is sitting still. That's preload, and it does two bad things. It means the bar is applying force at rest, which introduces cross weight and can make the car behave differently turning left than turning right. And it means you've used up part of the bar's travel before the corner even starts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAdjustable links let you set length so the bar sits completely neutral with the car at its normal ride height. Then the bar starts working the instant it should, evenly on both sides. On a lowered TSX or Accord, that's the difference between a rear bar that works properly and one that's slightly wrong all the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e110mm To 132mm Of Adjustment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReal range, measured center to center. That covers setting them to factory length if you just want a heavy-duty replacement, or dialing in whatever length gets you to zero preload after a drop or a bar upgrade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe practical way to set them: get the car at ride height, disconnect one end, and adjust until the link drops into place with no tension in either direction. That's zero preload, and it's what you're after.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eBuilt To Stay Quiet\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEnd links live a hard life. They're at the outer edge of the suspension taking constant load reversals, and cheap ones announce themselves with a clunk over every bump within a season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProgress uses heavy-duty ball socket ends and machined aluminum connectors in a three-piece design, which is what gets you strength without the noise. The ball sockets articulate smoothly rather than binding, and they're built for many miles of quiet operation rather than the rattling that gives adjustable links a bad reputation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eTwo Reasons To Buy These\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYou've upgraded your rear sway bar.\u003c\/strong\u003e This is the most common one. A bigger bar changes the loads and often the geometry, and adjustable links let you set it up properly rather than accepting whatever the factory links give you. If you're running a Progress rear bar on your TSX or Accord, these are the matching piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYour factory links are worn out.\u003c\/strong\u003e On a car that's ten to fifteen years old, the originals have likely developed play and started clunking. These replace them with something considerably stronger, and you get the adjustability as a bonus even if you set them to stock length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eOne Pair Per Bar\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach kit includes one pair of links, which covers one sway bar. If you're doing front and rear, you need two kits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e2009-2014 Acura TSX\u003cbr\u003e2008-2017 Honda Accord\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDirect replacement for the factory end links.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWho Should Run These\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is for the TSX or Accord owner who's added a rear bar and wants it set up correctly, or who's chasing a clunk from worn factory links and would rather upgrade than replace with the same thing. Adjustability means you can actually eliminate preload instead of living with it, and the build quality means you won't be back here in two years. Set them to zero preload, tighten them down, and go drive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2009-2014 Acura TSX and 2008-2017 Honda Accord. \u003cstrong\u003eAdjustment range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 110mm to 132mm center to center. \u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e heavy-duty ball socket ends with machined aluminum connectors, three-piece design. \u003cstrong\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e one pair per kit, covers one sway bar. \u003cstrong\u003eReplaces:\u003c\/strong\u003e factory end links directly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"VehicleFitment\"\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"tag\"\u003e2009-2014 Acura TSX \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"tag\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2008-2012 Honda Accord \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"tag\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2013-2017 Honda Accord \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\u003cli id=\"TechnicalData\"\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003cli id=\"InstallGuide\"\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Progress Technology","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46531457155106,"sku":"PRT-6710120","price":186.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2218\/5701\/files\/25324527.JPG?v=1787530669","url":"https:\/\/www.hybrid-racing.com\/products\/progress-technology-end-links-for-09-14-tsx-08-17-accord","provider":"Hybrid Racing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
