I've reviewed the common part numbers thread, and see several possible end links listed.

I've been burned by getting the wrong struts for my SS from the mechanic/parts store (yes this forum had the answer all along that those were GM only), so I'm nervous about anything on the suspension.

So anything to worry about on the end links, or can i trust my mechanic/parts supplier to come up with a "premium" end link that will work? (He's considering ones from TTX if that means anything to anyone)

Thanks. It will be good to have all clunks finally gone. They're also finding that the TTR upper mount isn't seating properly, but that's another topic.

I’m inclined to recommend Moog K750012 swaybar end links , they are greasable.

Moogs recommended by my Chevy mechanic acquaintance. They work out great. Get the correct length. The parts counter guy was trying to decide among three. I had to measure.

Remind the oil change techs to grease those fittings.

Thanks everyone, car is getting quieter by the day. It seems everything decided to fail in the same year (I'm guessing there may be some relation as one thing fails placing stress on the next...)

The sway bar bushings themselves also needed doing,

and now we've found the rear shocks have failed.
I know the front struts on the SS are very specific, but are the rears okay to put in something like some KYB?

KYB’s will do fine, for normal driving conditions.
Front sway bar bushings are 23 mm on the SS not 25mm

I put Kyb's on the back. Seem fine

Just worked on the front suspension on my owned since new HHR SS and found it came with the Moog Greaseable front sway bar links. Moog name right on them.

Hmm. Think maybe you replaced them before and forgot ? Looks that way based on RJ's link.

FYI. My 2010 SS bought new does not have the Moog greaseable links.

Is it possible you swapped out the links when you installed the Brembo brakes up front? It was a few years back , I bought the non Brembo SS callipers and brackets from you.
