Just a tip to anyone who cant get the top nuts off, after an hour of reefing on the wrench underneath the car I gave up. Then I had the idea to let the car down and use the floor jack as leverage to loosen the nut. Put the wrench on a slowly jack up the other end of the wrench till the nut loosens a little. Then jack the car back up and take it off all the way. It worked for the driver side and then the other side I had to have the car jacked up and used another hydraulic jack to do the same thing with the wrench. Forgot the nuts would unscrew opposite ways so the passenger side took a little longer haha

Wow, this video may be 6yrs olds, but is still very relevant. I'm an expat in the UK, and brother it saves a shed load if you can do it yourself. I Just had my KIA C'eed go through is yearly MOT(safety inspection) and they noted the offside(driver side) drop link boot is ripped. Your video has prompted me to do it in my drive, if I can get a good day on the weekend to do it. Thank you for all the videos; there are several that apply at this moment, so my diy list is getting longer. I may have to stop watching just until I complete the list I already have

Hey, are stabilizer links an important part that they should be periodically check and replaced on both sides at the same time even though only one of them is faulty? The OE for my car costs 40/link and Moog 30/link. I recently have one of them changed by the mechanic with a cheap one costed 8/link. So, I am just constantly thinking whether that's a bad decision. No issue with links, but still when I read about how important stabilizer links are, it makes me concerned that I chose the cheap one.

I have a problem with my sway bar link on the driver side. I used a #6 allen wrench but to no avail, didnt break loose. I will try the t40 torques and see if that helps.
Otherwise, looks like I'm going to cut the bolts.
I may try to use a nut cracker if I can get one in there.
I used the pb blaster to on both nuts, still didn't break it loose.
Outside of what I've mentioned, do you have any advice?

Honestly, The camera quality is that from another dimension. That is the only way I can imagine he'd be able to get the amazing images you capture. Such artwork, to be able to get the PERFECT lighting, PERFECT angle, PERFECT resolution and all brought PERFECTLY together with the precise information. Very well done, BAR SET!

Please answer: I bought Moog K750101 sway bar link for my 2006 350z from Amazon. The boot tore as I moved the bolt. Haven't installed it yet as the boot only ripped from the O ring around the base. Is that normal? Once I apply grease it should be fine?

Is it normal for my new end links to be loose in the ball socket area? I bought 2 of them, one is stiff and hard to move but the other end link is movable without much force.
