I've been restoring my 02 TB for the past year and now am installing new Chinese sway bar links. I hear a common complaint - they loosen up after a few days. It looks like the problem (at least in mine) is that the bolt fits loosely through the mounting hole. I cut a shim out of thin sheet metal and formed it to fit around the bolt so that you have to tap it in to fit. I don't know if the loose fit is normal or results from wear and tear, but adding a shim to both bolts eliminates the play and should keep the "clunk" from coming back.
And the Chinese links are not sealed - there's just a dust cover over them. I plan to put a plastic sandwich bag around each joint and duct tape it closed. Yeah, it's a ghetto solution but if you don't want to spend the money for properly sealed moog or GM parts it should work.
