What does a sway bar bushing do?
The sway bar bushing is located inside the the clamp that secures the sway bar to the frame. They use a busing to allow a little flex in the sway bar but not enough to cause a clank sound everytime the bar is flexed. So if the bushing is worn or gone your sway bar will make a bunch of clunk/clank sounds when the car is in motion.

How d o you change a strut arm bushing on a 99 saturn sl?
Saturn S series vehicles do not use a Strut arm... nor do they have a Strut arm bushing. I'm assuming your referring to the sway bar bushing in the center of the lower control arm. This bushing is not serviceable alone, the replacement of the entire lower control arm is needed if the bushing has failed.

How do you replace the front sway bar link on a suburban?
Just replaced a front sway bar link on my 2000 Suburban 1500 LT. I changed the oil yesterday and noticed one link was completely missing. The sway bar is a piece of shaped steel pipe attached to the frame. The link is a pin and rubber bushings connecting the sway bar to the wishbone to which the wheel assembly is attached. The wishbone allows the wheel to move up and down while riding on the coil spring and attached to the shock. The sway bar link seems to limit the wishbone travel to how far the steel pipe will flex. I bought a Moog brand replacement link kit from O'reilly/Checker auto parts for under $25. It included a long bolt, locknut, tubing that slides over the shank of the bolt, four rubber bushings, and four bushing washers. Normally, you would install a bolt from top down, but I noticed the factory link was installed from bottom up. Holding the bolt thread up, slide a bushing washer on the bolt cup side up. Slide a bushing on the bolt with the nipple side up. Slide the bolt upward into the hole on the wishbone. Slide another rubber bushing on the bolt, nipple side down, followed by a bushing washer, cupped side again toward the bushing. Slide the tubing over the bolt. Slide a bushing washer and bushing, nipple side up, on the bolt. At this point, the weight of the vehicle was compressing the coil spring enough that I couldn't fit everything below the sway bar. Jack the car up enough that you can push the bolt through the hole in the sway bar. Lower the vehicle until the weight is carried on the tubing and sway bar bushings. Place the final bushing, bushing washer, and locknut on the end of the bolt. Tighten just enough that a full thread appears above the locknut.
