Below bmc :) "Faith will move mountains, but you'd better bring a shovel...." > Also, when it broke > you may have lost the rubber bushing and little plate that are on it. There are actually five pieces here to look for: two rubber bushings, two metal plates, and a metal tube. They can be had (not too expensive) at the dealer as well. When reinstalling, both plates face down--kind of counter-intuitive. You'll also need the self-locking nut. >If you have > difficulty sliding the new piece back onto the arm, Vaseline or clear > silicone lube will slip it right on. Soapy water works as well. Put the bushing on the sway bar first, then put the link on next. When you tighten the nut on the link, watch out--it's very easy to twist the link right back off the sway bar! Not that I've ever done such a thing... :)
