I mentioned earlier I have noise until I lightly apply the brakes and my calipers are both rattling. Interested in seeing how you resolve - getting ready to order new slide pins, hardware and caliper grease along with a good cleaning.

I would say you need new caliper bushing and slide pins. Both very cheap and easy to replace. The caliper bushing goes on the bottom pin.
As for me the clunk is still there.
I think next is looking at my motor mount.

questions for those who have done the end link DIY: how long and how difficult is the job for an average joe using hand tools, no air?
i've done brakes, sway bar install and a host of other 'mod' type projects (i.e. the RJM clutch pedal), and the end links look straight forward. but i'm no pro nor do i have a lift. i've been getting a sort of clunking and a bothersome loose front end feeling over some bumps or driveway approaches. nothing feels loose when i do the winter tire changeover, but my guess is the end links are to blame. i'm at ~60k miles with Eibach sways.
another question - end link replacement does not impact alignment, correct?

End links are easy and don’t impact alignment - I made a video last fall and never got around to editing and posting.
Call outs:
Both wheels need to be off the ground
Use correct torque
With correct tools probably 1.5 hours - actually swapping components is 30/side, rest is tedious lifting car, removing wheels, etc.
