Anyone familiar with plastic endlinks for the rear swaybar? I was looking to see if my endlinks needed to be replaced and found that I have something looking strikingly similar to this, although I can't confirm the bushings are polyurethane:

Looks like Crown sells something very similar. Knowing the previous owner, they took the cheapest option

I'm trying to decide if I care. They're certainly not rusty, and based on the protective layer of dirt they're fairly new. Anyone have experience with these? Should I care?
 
plenty of vehicles have plastic end links. I wouldn't worry about it, but maybe someone around here with more direct experience will come along and say otherwise.

FWIW you can get metal rear links by Moog for only a little bit more.

Yah, I could replace them for $40.

If the plastic ones already on the Jeep are sufficient, however, I'll leave them. I don't have a need to replace them if there's not a problem.
 
These are going in this weekend, Moog. I'm not worried.

My rear moogs which are the same as shown in your photo have been on my jeep for less than a year maybe 10-12k miles and the bushings are already worn out and very clickity clackity... 99% driven on road too. front sway to frame bushings (also Moog) are also worn out, sloppy and less than a year old too. will be looking for something different whenever I get around to touching them again.
