    I am looking at replacing my sway bar links
    "Toyota 48820-47040 Front Stabilizer Link Assembly," a.k.a 48820-02110
    ... I think,,,
    These are quite expensive... (Toyota wants well over $600 to do this and it is just two bolts... a bolt on part.)
    Aftermarket kits vary from $40 to $150. Toyota wants @$170 each end. Ebay is more like 65 an end, but who knows with tariffs? Most are from Japan.

    I am wondering if it is just as good to use an aftermarket part?


    (I would not do that for the drive shaft. FYI, found one new for 350.)
    The labor charges are beyond insane.
