We have what we think is a design for a better adjustable swaybar link for the C5/C6. Unfortunately making them is small quantities (to start) is making the cost of goods high. So we'd like to get your help in determining what the market will bear.

All the adjustable links I've seen are like ones shown here and sell for around $300 per pair:

Not surprisingly we believe the ones we have designed are a little better execution of the same idea. We am using a Teflon lined rod end with thru hole in it so we can bolt the link to the bar with a Class 10.9 metric nut & bolt and remove the cantilevered stud from the link. We're also using Stainless Steel tapered spacers to allow maximum rotation of the rod end. We'd also offer the links with or without rubber rod end boots. Boots help keep the rod ends clean and free of debris and lengthen their life. Lastly, and we think most importantly, our design uses two rod ends with a stud in between, rather than a male rod end threaded into a female rod end like shown above.

This last feature makes our link infinitely adjustable whereas the other links are only adjustable in 1/2 turn increments. This means that once your car is corner weighted you can connect the swaybar and ensure that there is zero preload for maximum performance

 How much would you pay:

1) No more than the $300 the current ones go for

2) $300-$400

3) $400-$500

4) more than $500 if you thought they were really worth it
