All fixed now, but unfortunately all 4 of my perrin endlinks are toast. The crappy spherical bearings on all of them have seized up. Matt, Dean, didn't you guys replace Perrin endlinks with some other brand?
Sounds like my car... last week I slotted my rear swaybar bushings, re-greased 'em, and reinstalled them with some washers in the mounts. Now it swings free and easy. I should probably take a look at the front bar as well, but the car's back at GST for tuning this week.
