I like rod ends, but what is the point in needing to adjust the length? I can't see how this would have any meaningful effect on the anti-sway or anything else.

It's to remove any preload when the car is corner weighted.

In the case of my C4: I disconnected both swaybar links and corner weighted my car. Then I put my equivalent body weight in the driver's seat (which in my case is not trivial task!) and shortened one of the links to it's minimum and connected it. When I went to the other side I had adjust the length of the 2nd link so that I could bolt it together without having to load the bar at all. If the links were the same I would have had to push down on the one side of the swaybar to get the bolts to line up.
