And Can I fix it myself? Bolt off old, bolt on new? And should I go ahead and replace the other side too? I now know why the front end sounds like it's falling apart on uneven ground....Because it is...

Oh, and is it drivable until I can fix it? (next week)

 

Anti-roll bar end link.

No big deal. You can drive it like that if you want until you get the parts.

Replace both sides, and I would upgrade them while I was at it. I know I am whenever mine go bad.

 

Is this what I need?

i got the pair at rockauto.com for like $73.00 shipped. get the pair and change them both. the other one will break also without notice. plus the one from rockauto you can grease them! :-)

 

ehh! just rip the whole sway bar off. all it does is limit your off road capabilities

 

Sway Bar end-links like others have said. The ones in your link don't have the joint in them, your best bet is probably RockAuto. They're the only ones I know of besides the dealer that sell the right ones. As far as replacing those it's pretty easy, jack up the front end and pull the wheels off, you shouldn't have any trouble. It's taking apart the rest of the front end when you're doing something like installing a leveling kit that gets annoying.

 

IIRC. you dont even have to take the wheels off. just easier to take the weight off of them.

 

Is it just my computer, or can you guys not scroll down to number #9 ?
