jjewell Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 oh yea, replaced the sway bar end links & bushings. Got the end links (both) off ebay cheaper than one priced high @ stealership. Had to get the bushings @ stealership though. 45 minutes, drive test & no more noise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One end to the end of the sway bar & the other end to the strut. I did the test mentioned in the FSM for testing torque on the end link joints and all of them were loose & worn out. Tight, smooth & quiet now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
