am replacing the blown air suspension on my 90 AWD wagon w/standard coil-overs and was looking at the bushings while doing this.
the rear sway bar links are toast! can see daylight between the link & bar end - not a good thing...
is there a difference between the links on an air susp. car and a non air susp. car? trying to get an idea of what it will cost me to replace these (price wise they are pretty much the same) but are listed separately...not sure which way i should go....

No they're the same, as long as you get it for the same year. The links changed in 92 I believe. The 90-91's have a drop link style that go through the rear lateral link. The 92+ have a C link that bolts to the rear lateral link via a welded on bracket.

I think it was a mid 92 change. I've seen a 92 with the droplinks. 93 and 94 for sure though got the new C style
