so today i got to putting in my lca bushings finally...then i find my front sway endlink is broken (drivers side)

im contemplating just going to autozone or some store near here buying one for like $30 bucks

or maybe someone has a cheap better suggestion?

if it takes too long to ship it i don't even want to bother, so only stuff that is in stock.
i want to get this done asap

 

well you should atleast check your twice a week like walking around it and checking the bottom it only takes you like 10 mins to check eveything and always do it every morning when your car is cold specially when your checking your oil level

 

i think i broke it putting on the lca bushings i took pics of everything last week before i went for an alignment and in the picures that link wasnt broken. (https://honda-tech.com/forums/acura-rsx-dc5-honda-civic-ep3-32/frontcamber-2-stuck-there-2958480/)

today i put on the lca bushings and went for an alignment, which they then notified me they were broken.

would like duralast or masterpro brand ones from autozone/orielleys suffice?

i read good things about moog endlinks but i dont want to go through the hassle of greasing them.

 

how do you guys suggest i take off that....

i tried vice grips and i cannot get the threaded part/ball part to stay still while im turning the nut

the vice grips slip....

i basically did what that guy suggested to do in the video...

i used vice grips for the nut and ball part on the lca...then when it came to the one that was on the sway bar itself...i cannot get it off

 

You need to use an allen wrench inside the end link bolt head and then use a wrench to take it off. It's already destroyed so just bust out a sawzall and cut that bitch off.

Yes. This isn't a performance part, it's just an endlink. So long as it connects A to B then it works.

 

the allen key hole was stripped. but i got it out and replaced both sides with oem replacements from napa $30 boths sides...so i cant really complain

so i got hardrace lca bushings, front esmm, new tierod ends, aspec coilovers, new sway bar endlinks, front and rear camber kits all installed all done and aligned correctly finally!


time to find rpf1's

 

Good work man.
