By sway bar link do they mean the endlinks? If it is just go underneath your car and locate the sway bar. Then just follow it to either end of the bar(s) and it should connect to the endlinks. Not sure how the endlinks are on the SC, but you may need an allen wrench to hold it in place while you turn the nut.

sorry i meant the end links

mkorsu

Yeah. If it's the endlinks, an allen wrench and open end wrench are all you need to adjust.

Cool man let us know how it goes. Just remember there are links at each end of the swaybars.
