SPL Pro Front Endlinks DO NOT STAY TIGHT
Been running the stock end-links on my eibach sways for 6 years, no issue. Fronts squeak now and then but I just need to get in there and put some fresh grease on the bushings.

Looking at the pictures; doesn’t seem the upper heim joints have room to work vs. the lower ends.
Yes a quality locknut w/proper thread pitch helps.
Have equal amounts of room in the heim’s to swivel a bit as needed without binding.
Sometimes a small spacer is required to allow more movement.
