Stabilizer links

I have to change my front 2 stabilizer links, they look pretty simple, just wanted to know if there is any detailed information I should know about, any special tools.....that sort of thing. Thanks in advance.

You mean the end links? Nothing special except the bolt requires an allen wrench to loosen/tighten the nut.

Yep the end links near the tire, never really done any work underneth the car so wasen't too sure, it looks simple though. So I would need an allen wrench?

Yup and an open end wrench. I would spray them down with PB Blaster or WD40 and let it sit for an hour or so before you go at it. They tend to be frozen from rust and road dirt.

Use jack stands and jack up the whole front end.

Both of my front stabilizers have broken and now my bar is pretty much dangling. I am getting it fixed tomorrow but I have to do a bit of driving to pick up the parts and then go to where I am getting the work done (for free). Should I not do this driving with both front stabilizers broken?
