Default any stratus owners?

hey guys. I have to change the outer tire rods and sway bar links on my girls stratus. I would like to know if anyone has a sevrice manual for the 01 stratus? If not can anyone tell me how to change the sway bar links and their proper torq? Iv done plenty of front end work to my truck but not much to her car (only the struts and balljoints) Any advice would be a help since iv never done a sway bar link. Her car is an 01 stratus se with a 2.4 Iv tried to ask the car forum guys but they dont offer help like the us truck guys do. Thanks

May have to get a Haynes. Unless there is a valuable free download in the stratus section like there is here on the Ram section. They are about $25 at any FLAPS.

I would assume (I know) that they would be pretty straight forward like most cars.

Thanks guys. Im gonna soak everything in PB blaster over night while I continue to look for torque specs. If i cant find them online tonight ill pick up the haynes at the local parts store. There is one avaliable online for 7$ but im note sure how well it would work.

Just get the Haynes. You'll be able to fix other things on her car, and be a hero. And we all know what that will lead to.
