I just bought new Rm sway bars for my 2g awd talon. Now I want to get new end links to go with em. I went to prothane's website and looked at their catalog (Which needs to be downloaded). On page 10 it shows end link bushing kits. Does anyone know how long the distance is from the front center of the stabilizer bar to the control arm? Once that distance is found you can get a part number. Thanks

Look closely at how the sway bars mount and you find out why those wont work. Either buy some new endlinks from mistubishi or go the heim joint route.
 
There's no OTS heim joints for our cars, nor are they needed. New Mitsu pieces have no slop and work just fine. Unless and until you have metal bushings on the bar-to-chassis mounts, anything beyond the stock pieces is useless overkill.

The only trick to swaybars on our cars is the possible need for one side to be adjustable. But I've found that loosening the brackets before the installing the endlinks is always sufficient. Then, with the car balanced and sitting on the tires (i.e., after doing any adjustments to the coilovers), you get in a pit and tighten the brackets. Ay wallah! No preload.

All in my humble opinion, of course.
