The Perrin endlinks also suck. They stick out too far from the mounting tab and hit the inner fender at lock. I ordered whitelines but could not adjust them down far enough that the end of the sway bar would hit the lower control arm. So I set my car on the ground with no endlinks, measured eye to eye as best I could with the swaybar about where I thought it needed to be, and ordered a set in the correct range from whiteline that are shorter than the recommended if you put in an FRS as the model. I know these are not popular from previous quality issues but they have been okay so far for me.
What I also found for strap wrenches that works better on smaller shafts, is to undo the loop, wrap it a few times around the shaft(it will be offset because of this) then run it back through the loop and hold tight as normal. Gives it a little more to grab. This is why I went to just using the impact gun, less hassle. The wrench I have looks like this one but different brand for reference, but is much smaller. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-8-...APWR/300117125

Anything I should know about combining T2s and the various end links on offer? Is the mounting point the same height as stock, any known combinations that don't work for whatever reason, etc?

I feel a twinge of guilt whenever I bust out the air tools. I have an assortment but can't remember the last time I used one.
There's another French -ment suffix! An assortment is a thing. A fitment is a fucking thing, goddammit!

From that older thread, looks like a lot of us where using the KLC180-210.

I think I started on the 179's but went to the 180-215. Looking back I was almost as short as the 179's would go.

I didn't actually measure the ride heights before lifting the car either so we're going to see what happens when I stick the perches in the center of the recommended range and adjust from there.
