Default 2007 XK stabilizer links

Has anyone ever changed the stabilizer links oh their xk? Did it make an obvious improvement/difference in the handling/cornering?

ELindo,
I just had them changed two weeks ago. Whereas I can't say that it specifically changed the handling since I changed the shocks, sway bar links, and bushings, I can categorically say that the obnoxious "knocking" over uneven pavement that was driving me crazy is finally gone. I bought a very inexpensive pair from an ebay vendor (1 pair front and 1 pair rears) and sourced the rear bushings from another vendor. For about $500 (in parts), including 4 shocks, 4 sway bar links, front and rear sway bar bushings, my XKR's ride is like it was when I purchased it. Well worth the effort.

If looking to improve your handling I'd be lowering the vehicles centre of gravity .

In my case I went with the adamesh springs, I can say the diffeference is night and day between the stock spring set up

What I noticed the most was the xk feels alot more planted on the road and it's nasty tendency to over steer when pushed is all but gone now
