Sway bar and end links

Sway bar and end links

Postby kaarona1 » Mon Feb 05, 2007 6:41 am

Ok - After much research, I am about ready to replace my front and rear contorl arm bushinsh (poly). Front and rear sway bar bushings (poly) and I want to replace my rear sway bar end links. I have had a hard time finding rear sway bar end links. I found these. Can anyone confirm that these are the end links I am looking for?

Thanks

Rusk - Did you replace the front or back? Which links did you use?

So did you ever figure out what the problem was? Or is it still a problem?

I just ordered the new sway bar links (from Autoparts World) to hopefully get rid of the horrible clunking noise in the rear. The guy said that they do not come with new sway bar bushings so I ordered new bushings also. I though they would come with new bushings? Anyone who has ordered new links, did you have to buy new bushings seperately?
