2G Moog K80564 sway bar link

[PlanZero]

I noticed I needed some new front sway bar links when I swapped my steering rack, and depending where you look this moog part number shows two different style links. One has a beefier rod and the other has a stock appearance. Has anyone bought these recently and if so which ones did you receive?

Rockauto has good ones just got rears for my gvr4. http://www.rockauto.com/m/mobilecatalog.php?a=Ad+Code+G-autoparts
This is the front for a 2g

I just installed some MOOG front sway links in my Talon, and they were thicker than the stock. However, they fit good and install was simple with no problems.

Yes I am trying to make sure I get the thicker ones, but when I search I find two different images for the Moog part.
And Dsmkauai, I saw those MAS fronts on rock auto (I have MAS upper ball joints that are holding up well), but I don't understand how that extra nut works. Is it supposes to go behind the sway bar as a jamb nut? I prefer the links that have something behind to clamp on to to prevent the stud from spinning.
And what is the big difference in quality between Moog and Quicksteer sway bar links, the "entry level" in federal mogul's chassis parts.

Rock shipped me two mismatched parts under this same number, one being the thin style and the thicker. Both were non-servicable.

Amazon sent a matched pair of heavy style links under this part number and both had Zerks installed where the ball end met the rod. This means MOOG has at least three types, all under the same part number.

I sent both the Rock-sourced MOOGs back. Apparently they source stuff from multiple sources and you get what you get.

That's exactly what I thought, especially from RockAuto. Thanks for the info.
