1G AWD Rear Sway-Bar Links


Generally if you have to replace these because they snapped off when you tried to remove them, and the only source seems to be a few days in shipping transit unless you know someone else who has some laying around. But I stumbled across these looking through the shelves at O'Reilly auto parts. Almost exactly the same, yeah they're MasterPro but they're just sway-bar links and shouldn't be a problem, even has a nice grease fitting on it and only $7 and some change each. Maybe this is old news but I've searched a fair amount and never came up with anything in the forums that I could just drive to the parts store and pick-up.

One bushing had to be shaved down a bit but ended up putting the top washer closer to the link joint upside down against the lower arm then both rubber bushings followed by the lower washer. I put 1 pump on grease in each before installing then torqued down. Last pic shows about how much I cut off of one of the rubber bushings.
