4th Generation Rear end clunk - did I buy the right replacment part?

Ive read I need to replace the bushings, but this piece pictured was only $17/side and thats what autozone said I needed... is that the right part to stop the clunk for the rear end?

on the box it say "sway bar link"

mine started doing loud clunks on speed bumps and big potholes, and rattling on small potholes. is it stabilizer bar endlinks problem?

tighten your top center strut nuts. then check that everything else is tightned. if everything is tight and secure then the clunking noises over certain bumps are the endlinks (or so.. everyone says and they fixed my clunking too)

I bet your Autozone counter person gave you the wrong price for those end links. They are much more expensive than that. For that price, take two, you'll need them eventually anyways. Then ask him to get you a sway bar BUSHING (that is legitimately around 10 bucks), that should take care of the rear end clunk sound.

3rd Generation same here

I just replace the end link on the rear sway bar, also did struts all around...but the clunking noise on my 94 is from the rear sway bar bushing being warn out.
