problem with a stabilizer link bar

[unbalancedwood]

Okay, so i stripped the bolt on my stock one, but the boot was cut and leaking greese anyways. Cost me $48 for a new one, call me stupid

But heres my problem, the new one dosen't use the allen wrench technique, you hold one side with a 19mm wrench and tighten the bolt on the other. But with the wrench's I have they are too thick and dont allow the bolt to fully tighten. I tried calling around for those thin wrench's that are 2-3mm but no one had them.

I got some 'almost heavy duty' long nose pliers, anyone with other ideas?

go buy a cheap wrench and grind it down if you can't find one.

I think you got the wrong sway bar end links.

Buy a cheap wrench and grind it thin on a bench grinder.

Sleeper - im pretty sure its the same, checked with advanceauto and here http://www.amazon.com/TRW-18284-Sway-Ba ... automotive

It fits perfect, but tightening it is the difficult thing. I'm at college, far away from my sanders and anyone who would have one. I dont know what to do...

needle nose vice grips then?

the vise grips dont work they wont hold it in place. if i were to get a cheap 19mm wrench how would i go about sanding it down...without a machine? Thanks for the ideas!

I file and a lot of free time.

Or check around and see if your school has a shop where you can do it. I know at RIT the mechanical engineering dept could do it easy.
