    I just replaced the links on my '08 Silverado. One thing that was troublesome is the bolt/nut on the replacement wasn't the same size as the stock ones. I struggled with the driver's side. I hit the passenger side with WD40 before I started and it was much easier. Seeing how easy the bushing replacement was, I'll probably do it next.

    word of caution measure your sway bar I purchased a set that said it fit my 08 Silverado but the body bushings were 36 MM ID my bar is 33 mm OD and the body clamps DONT tighten up the bushings with that much room had to buy a set of 34 mm body bushings. of course I learned that After I had greased up the body bushings making them non returnable. Thank goodness my old body bushings were not that bad so I was able to put them back with the new end bar links till the new body bushings came in.

    hey, I recently got an alignment on my 07 classic Chevy Silverado 1500 this was after I replace inner and outer tie rods on both sides. my toe was off bad (outter). the alignment helped a lot but around like 4sec of no hands the truck drifts to the right.. is that due to tire ware I know on the right side the tire is about 40 % and on the left, it's less or is it just a bad alignment done?

    I'm about to replace mine as well.
    But I'm thinking leave everything loose then tighten at the end?
    Should I jack up/ jack stand, remove the tire and have the suspension loose?
    If there is a real mechanic please advise the correct steps if it matters.
    Also how many beverage job should this be rated at?

    • @jdkirchner9984
      @jdkirchner9984 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Basically, the instructions say to do the final tightening of the sway bar links with the vehicle at "curb height". Which just means sitting with all the tires on the ground, on a flat surface, at normal ride height. So you can get them started with it jacked up a little and the wheel off if it's easier, but you want to tighten it all up with it back on the ground.
