Rear Factory Swaybar Issues

Post by 93vtecklr »

Hello all, I've searched for a fix but cannot find one. Alas I post another problem with my poor baby. Last year it started and now it is worse. Every time I hit a bump it rattles, bangs, squeeks, and cries for my attention. I noticed the DS endlink had just popped off the bar, so I popped it back on but noticed that it would move laterally as well. I was wondering to my shegrin how the darn thing works but I think maybe the bushings are hooped. Has anyone else experienced this? If so any input would be greatly valued and appreciated, thanks brethren. Also wondering if the whole rear end must be in the air to replace worn parts, or if I could work side to side....

i remeber reading one faq thread on making your own adjustable endlinks, im not sure if it was on here or mx-6.com, but you just use threaded rod and 2 female heim joints and you have full adjustablility you may wanna search that up!
