Ford Racing,part number # M-5483-A, I got them the other day ,took me awhile to track them down," they no longer sell them ,I got mine at TeamFordparts .com,cost me $180.00 plus shipping ,yes I had already got the shelby ones
,but after looking at the new front sway bar ,,I think the Ford Racing ones will work better, 
now I can put the front sway bar on.

First, the weak part of the Ford links are the balljoint ends. I'm a little confused because I see some that are obviously Ford production ends that were cut and have a turn buckle added for adjustment, and others that appear to me to be PowerGrid links. Anyway, neither are as beefy as what I use/sell/and helped design, and ours use a replaceable rod-end meaning if you have an end go bad you can just replace it for not a million bucks. And they have a much higher load rating.
Anyway, on to the bars... Those are fine enough bars for the price... but one issue with them are the front mounts. The front bar is mounted in shear, and the front brackets they send with their bars will flex and eventually fail. We have broken a total of about 10.... Granted putting around on the street this will take much longer than putting them through more abused like autocrossing and tracking, but consider they are "Ford Racing" parts, they are pretty pathetic. Do yourself a favor and consider these two options
