Subject: Sway Bar end links

Message:
Just FYI. The end links on an R/T are very soft on the front sway bar. I've had my sway off twice. I went to take it down a third time and the top of the end link sheered straight off. So it looks like it's time to replace them. Has anybody done this on an r/t and how bad is it? I'm in no hurry to replace em since I mostly drag but if I'm gonna hit the twisties I'll need em again.

You are right about those links, they do seem soft. Mine were cross-threaded from the factory and were ruined when I went to install my aftermarket swaybar.

They are press-fit into the control arm. I couldn't remove mine with a large sledge when my truck was only one year old. Best way to take them off is with an air hammer, they'll pop right out without any trouble.

To install them you can use a hammer. Then just put the bolt back on them and you're good to go.

That's it!
