Question End Link Decision Making HELP :D

Hi Everyone,

I'm struggling.... my G37x Coupes end links need to be replaced .

Current Setup : G37X Coupe with Hotchkis FRONT AND REAR SWAY BAR .

I dont track my car, its my daily driver , its started to making clunking sounds the sounds you hear when your end links have gone to **** lol

Now i was intially going to replace them with OEM but now people are telling me to replace them with Whiteline ....So Questions :

1.Does Whiteline Make FRONT AND REAR END LINKS FOR 09 G37X COUPE

2.Where is the best place to purchase them ?

3.Do i have to replace the front end links to white line if i replace the rear to whiteline.

Really could use some help from my fellow members who understand the G platform more specifically the X Coupe.

Thank You in advance

I use the SPL rear with OEM front endlinks. Im using the eibach sway bars.
I have seen some issues with the whitelines on the370z forums with them becoming loose and requiring tightening all the time. so be careful.

If you don't track your car you might look into Moog links, and they have zerks.

Hi blenewt, it's been a long time glad to see your still active on the forums

I'm having such an annoying problem
Car : G37x Coupe
Sway bars F+R : Hotchkis
I hear a knocking sound when I go over bumps , I have greased my bushing installed new OEM links in the rear and also installed new rear sway bar bushing from the hotchkis rebuild kit.....
I'm really loosing my love for my car it's been a year I've been trying to trouble shoot
Can anyone help ?

I never had this issue before it happened all of a sudden ... i checked the car pulled on literally everything to see if something would be loose, but cant find anything everything seem snug, i dont know if you remember but i am running a staggered setup on my X Coupe 245 front and 285's in the rear , orginaly everything was working perfectly with OEM links but even after replace OEM Links with BRAND New OEM links im still hearing the clunking any help would be seriously appreciated .

At least one knocker was traced to torn control arm bushings that were difficult to see with the arms on the car.
