Suspension Part Name

What is the name of the part of the suspension that goes between the sway bar and upper part of the strut? It is about 18" long and has a rubber encased ball joint on each end? It bolts to the upper part of the strut on one end and into the sway bar end on the other.

I have a front end rattle that I have traced to the connection between this part and the sway bar.

Car is a 2000 S70.

That would be a sway bar end link.

some people call it "link rod" or "dog bone" (due to its shape)...
BTW, its just only 12" long...cant be 18" tho...

IPD makes a great end link for your car. It is a bit beefier than the OEM. I think they are approx. $60 each, but a really nice upgrade.
