Hey, I was checking my link pins and I know I need front ones because they click and move when I wiggle them. The rears don't click, but they move around and are not stiff to where they don't move. Is this normal? Thanks:thumb:
 
If there's enough play where you can move it by hand, they need to be replaced. If you get a knocking noise from them, but can't move them by hand, a breaker bar can help find small amounts of play (especially is there's already some preload from mis-adjusted or corner-balanced coilovers, etc...)
 
Okay, I'll be replacing the links then, I was just making sure because I figured they shouldn't move side to side. Thanks!
