I stripped the hex part of the front driver side end link. f***** up, stupid bolts were rusted. Any ideas? Can i get new end links?

 

I ****ed up a bolt during my install too. I just went to the dealer and ordered a bolt for like 32 cents.

 

bolt is fine...i messed up the nut that the hex screw goes into...which is the end-link...now what what the f*** do i do?

 

Order the parts from the dealer and then take it to a shop to remove the stripped bolt. My friend stripped his endlink nut too and they got it off in 10 minutes and charged him $25 for the job.

 

Yea I just ordered the part....Ill cut the current one myself...rusted nuts suck.

What about the Retaining Clips are the necessary?

Also, has anyone ordered aftermarket end-links?

 

guys sometimes just pay 2 have it done.......................

 

nah, just have the patience to use wd40 or other penetrant and let it sit for an hour or so before trying to get it off.

 

yep...no paying here....by the way its all done.....i took off the bottom end-link from the lower control arm....then took out the whole sway bar and used pliers to force the other end link off. Helps to have friends with good tools.

 

glad 2 hear it worked out man.......have fun peace
