Sway bar endlinks

[Crowbar911]

I think that all 4 of my sway bar endlinks are shot.

When I installed the hotckiss sway bars, I put new endlinks on since the rubber on the oem ones were leaking.
My car now creaks when it goes over small bumps, but not over big bumps.
Ive narrowed out the sway bar bushings, as they are brand new, and lubed like im trying to fit a elephant in a dog house.

I got the new ones off of rock auto. They are currently rusty, but the rubber seems to be working fine.

A few questions:

Is there a performance endlink that is made that I can use that would be able to withstand the bigger sway bars? The ones that I have on are pencil thin, while the sway bar is

Is there something else that could be causing the crunching sound? The sound is coming from the bottom of the suspension, so I dont believe its a spring.

Is it odd that the sound is only with small bumps? If its a decent bump, there isnt a sound.

I have a problem with my endlinks and they make a popping sound while the suspension is flexing, not compressing. Open your door and put your hands on the edge of the frame and start pushing it upward to see if you can hear the sound and which side it is. If you hear something jack up the car and wiggle the endlinks to see if they are the culprit, i dont kno if there are aftermarket endlinks, but i would deffinatly get them and I will be searching for them myself since I have hotchkis sway bars im about to install myself and they are way fatter than stock

So I took the car to the mechanic for brakes, and the sway bar endlinks are shot as well.

Does anybody make a beefed up endlink that I can use?
