If youre replacing both links you don't need to remove driveshaft
I am an old school guy and would never torque to 120 lbs in one go. 30 lb increments to distribute the stresses in the threads, hub and wheel. Warp or break a part once will eat up all the time you save in a lifetime of just torquing down to spec. One auto manufacturer even backs torque off and re-torques as explained in their technical manual but the shop manual only give the torque specification and not the process.
There’s no reason to remove the axle. It can be worked around multiple ways that are significantly easier.
No need to remove the drive shaft , I just used a comealong to from the frame hole to the sway bar and pull the sway bar back alittle to get the new part out and in , Simple
I have a 2004 Expedition 2WD and it has a different LCA than in this video. I do not have access to get anything other than a deep socket on the sway bar end link nut. There is no way to have a wrench of any type on both the nut and the end link at the same time. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks man!!!! when I was taking it off I was wondering because the whole assembly was moving!!
Is there a video on diagnosing a bad sway bar link? I have popping sound when I turn sharply and the sway bar links appear to be loose. 2005 F150 FX4.
What year is this truck? I have a 2006 FX4 F150 and my swayer end link looks 100% different. With that said I have a split bushing on my end link that needs replacing but after watching this video I am confused if i have a different swaybar?
Are there torque specs for the end link nuts?
Hi, quick question….I have been having a shake in my steering wheel at about 45-55mph only when turning the wheel. When I am going straight, there is so shake. I have newer tires and they have been balanced repeatedly. Could worn sway bar end links cause the shaking? Thank you!
Great video
My link has a lot of pressure on it from the sway bar and I can't get it out…. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Does this require an alignment when finished?
