Default C-4 adj. swaybar end-links

I had a hard time finding them. So, If you need them PB&P has just started making them.

I need some. My car is always lop-sided, so I think the rear bar is preloaded.

I have had the hiem jointed, adjustable sway bar end links on my car for a number of years now. I purchased them from Exotic Muscle. I think DRM also offers them for the later C4.

so explain to me the adjustable part. What is the theory behind them.
The heim joints are obvious, but why adjustable?

I'm fighting an issue where my car is always lower on the drivers side, and adjusting the spring bolts don't seem to help. The spring looks fine, and not delaminated at all. So now I disconnect the sway bar, and the drivers side did come up some. But I still can't figure this out, and how they get preloaded.

Ideally, the swaybars should not be preloaded when the car is
level, stationary and loaded in its track configuration. Adjustable
end links help to achieve this.

Here are a couple of links that might provide more insight.

After many years of jointed ends on all my previous cars, I decided to use urethane in the stock links. The bars can be shimed. My front is fine, but my rear is shimmed a 1/2" after corner weight adjusting.
