replaced rear sway bar links and bushings
 
I received my new rear sway bar links and bushings from Fastlane, on Friday and figured it would be a quick one-hour fix. Unfortunately, one of the bushing clamp bolts broke :mad:! Thus, my car sat on stands overnight until I could get the correct drill bit the next morning (--took advantage of the extra time and cleaned up/painted the sway bar). The good thing is that there are small holes behind the points where the bushings are attached, and I was able to fit a wrench with a nut taped to it :cool:. Yes, I was quite happy that I didn't have to pick up a tap.
Anyhow, no more clunking noise from the rear end! and I think it handles slightly better....

Good work!

Those links can make the whole car sound like it's coming apart. The neat thing about things like this is that they're not expensive.

Have a great day,
