Shorter Stabilizer link for lowered Yari

Right now I have to fully compress the springs to get it to fit, the Tien links only need about half compression before they could be bolted up.

There is no trd links to suit the shorter trd struts which you think they would supply like other shorter shock lowering kits have.

If we take the 40mm average lowering spring drop from the stabilizer link we should be running 320mm links or close to it and I have researched and found that standard honda jazz links will work for us.

This should correct the front end lower sway bar geometry when running short shock struts and lowering springs.

Will see if i can find the dimensions of the different struts available. ALSO THIS IS JUST THEORY RIGHT NOW UNTIL TESTED, PLEASE DONT TRY AT HOME .

I bought an adjustable one. But trust me, you’re fine with the stock length. If you get shorter ones, the sway bar will hit your drive axles. I think I only have 15mm clearance from my drive axles, and they’re extended to longest comfortable length (about 25mm of thread left in the center bar at each end). Hence why I didn’t post about it, because I don’t recommend it.
Also the Yaris has 12mm mounting holes, the Honda only has 10mm. That's why there are spacers that came with the adjustable one that I bought.
I’m actually going back to the stock end links. I threw my old ones away since the boots were ripped, which I thought was the cause of my clunking noise. But ended up it was my ball joint after all. I got a set of Megan Racing extended ball joints to replace them. But that’s another story.
