US 2008 Fit Base here with what seems like worn out end links. Was going to replace, and see Honda OEM are pretty expensive compared to aftermarket for what seems like a pretty straightforward part. Moog has what seems like a good reputation as aftermarket parts, and I see they've got some that are greasable with what looks like zerk fittings. Anyone used Moog parts or other stabilizer end links and if the greasable socket is worth it or just an extra hassle and I should go with a good sealed connector?

 

Moog is decent stuff. Regular none zerk fitting ones are all you need unless you think you will utilize the fittings.

 

I very recently replaced mine after 150k miles and went with the moog greaseable units. I have no regrets. The new ones are quite a bit thicker than the OEM units but it probably makes 0 difference. Ditching that hex key setup was the best part.
I don't think adding grease every oil change or two is much of an added hassle, takes maybe a minute to do.

 

Thanks, for the replies. I went ahead and ordered the sealed versions, just to avoid the grease thing. I don't mind doing it, but it would just be another thing to do, and I realized, I really would have to go out and get a grease gun and have a tube of grease for this one thing. I bought online, and that said, all of the aftermarkets seem to avoid the hex key double-wrench thing judging by the pictures. We'll see when they arrives.

I did notice that the Moog seem thicker in all respects, and that was another thing that almost tipped me in that direction.

I'm at 112,000 and they've been clunking for a while. I think the bushings give out based on time and exposure rather than miles. Heh.
