HELP PLEASE!!!!! sway bar link???

[yanyan]

Hey everyone.. i'm in need of help, theres a piece that connects to the strut from the sway bar... i think its the SWAY BAR LINK, but i'm not sure... on my right front side, it got popped off of the sway bar, and its still connected to the strut. I tried hammering it back in.. but it doesn't seem to work. I'm talking about the socket and theres a BALL that is supposed to fit into there, but i can't seem to find a way to fit it back in..ARGGGHHHH please help!!!!! Its like a 6-8in long rod, with a ball on each end, thats connected to the strut and the sway bar in the front... help please.

You need a new end link . you should be covered under warrenty ,dealer item only

i mean, nothing is broken... its just that the ball that was PRESSED into the socket, had popped off.... Will they cover it even with my Tein springs???

Or you can buy an endlink from micaspeed! Tell him you need the lowered version of it.

I mean... how the fuck do i pop it back in??? nothing is broken, its just popped out of the socket.

you dont pop it back in... even if you could you wouldn't want that, the bearing is contaminated.

seriously, either warantee it, or make your own endlinks like I did... for WAY cheaper than buying OEM ones, not to mention much stronger

[yanyan]

how would i go about making my own??? or does any aftermarket companies sell em???

its easy... but if they get a little stuck be prepared to cut the stud/nut off witha cut-off wheel
