Default Help!!!!!!!!!!

Okay guys im trying to bolt the end link onto the swaybar and it seems impossible to get it in no matter how hard i lift the hub up to get the end link to line up with the swaybar!
Any ideas???? Thanks

Are you just doing one side? If so, you will have the jack up the whole front end or rear end evenly.

You can do it on a lift but it's not necessary. If you are working on the front, make sure you jack up the whole front end. Same thing when working on the rear. My sway bar end links bolted back on without a problem.
