At the factory:
The plastic rod and boots snap onto the metal balls using a high speed 20 ton jig and press machine.

They are trash if:
* The boots are damaged.
* The boots are leaking corrosion.
* The boots are missing.
* The plastic link is damaged.
* The plastic link is broken.
* The plastic link is missing.

The only part reused is the nut/washer holding it to the sway bar.
