I had my struts, ball joint, control arms replaced and I still have a clunk in the right side front. Clunk happens on rough roads and bumps. A local shop said my sway bar end links looked good...my question is can I replace my end links without jacking up my car, is that posible ?. I think I need to take it off to inspect it, like at a park....life is real,...lol
There is going to be considerable tension on the sway bar and I don't think you can do it while it is on the ground. Also getting the nuts off can be hard, so you need space, possibly heat, and a pair of vise grips. I wish I had better news, but thankfully as long as they aren't broken, it might be worth waiting to have a shop do it.
@@copenhagenblue8417 I took your advise, shop did it for me, the drivers side that attached the sway bar had some notable wear but it didn't make any difference, still clunking.
@@richardhill2379 well I’m glad you got it done, I’m sorry that it didn’t help out the sound, but if anything it should give you a little better stability which makes you safer.
@@copenhagenblue8417 The sound my friend was the transmission motor mount and was affecting ONLY the driver side assembly. Crazy right. I had my motor mounts done at a local repair facility and my car was not doing very well with the shaking, clunking so I took it back to them and it turned one of the mounts they replaced was a bad one so now it's all quiet on the western front
Great video !!
