While replacing my front coilovers i noticed my stabilizer links were all chewed up looking so i went to autozone and got some aftermarket red ones that say they are "heavy duty". should i use them or should i get dealer parts? any advice?

It will not hurt anything... it can only help. Stiffer bushings will make the sway bar more effective in controlling body roll during cornering. Now what that particular manufacturer means by "heavy duty" is not an absolute certainty.... hopefully they are heavy duty, corrosion resistant bolts, and a harder rubber or a polyurethane bushing.

I've ran poly bushings for years, you just have to keep a closer eye on them because they deform... replace them regularly. I think I'm going solid next go round, but if I wanted to stay more compliant I'd try to find a hard durometer rubber.
