When the DIY calls for Locktight, USE IT!

I just rebuilt my entire front end over the course of about a months worth of weekends (and a few late weeknights)

Well.... as the title states: USE LOC TIGHT! I skipped that step because I didn't have any, planned on coming back to it later.. Never tightened everything up after driving a few miles. FORGOT.

Now I have a car that turns right when I press the brakes. The bolt that threads into the sway bar, and the bushing it holds in place on the UCA are gone...

best pic I have right now. I'd offer to post better ones, but I will surely forget.

Fell off the WVO bandwagon when people started trying to charge $2.50 a gallon for dirty vegetable oil.
