Yes, the sway bar linkage connects to the control arms on both sides, usually on the lower control arm.
The lower control arm bushing would be located at the inner pivot point where the lower control arm is mounted to the frame/crossmember. Depending on your vehicle it could have one or two bushings. The outer pivot point would be your lower ball joint.
go to a mechanic
The lower control arm and spindle will separate .
Yes!
check your idler arm for play, these blazers are known for that, check your pit man arm coming down from your steering box, front sway bar bolt & bushings and rear bushings
Yes. The shaft is referring to the control arm part itself and the link is the sway bar link.
Control arm and sway bar link bushings can not be serviced, however they may need to be replaced if making excessive noise.
To replace the sway bar link on a 2004 Chrysler Pacifica, first, raise the vehicle and secure it on jack stands. Remove the wheel to access the sway bar link, then use a wrench to detach the old link from the sway bar and the lower control arm. Install the new sway bar link by tightening it to the manufacturer's specifications, ensuring proper alignment. Finally, reattach the wheel, lower the vehicle, and torque the lug nuts to the correct specifications.
Depends on the type of suspension... MacPherson strut suspension- strut, lower control arm, spring, knuckle, sway bar and end links Independent A arm suspension- upper and lower A arm, knuckle, sway bar, end links, spring and shock Multi-link- (4-5 arms) knuckle, sway bar, end links, spring and shock
sway bar end links
If by "disconnected" you mean unbolted, and if by "fix" you mean re-bolting, then it's not hard. It should consist of an endlink, which is typically just a bolt that connects the end of the sway bar to the lower control arm. Endlink bushings should sit on either side of the sway bar and on either side of the lower control arm. If you look at the way the sway bar is connected on the driver's side, it should be easy to figure out.
To replace a sway bar link in a Chevy Tracker, start by safely lifting the vehicle and securing it on jack stands. Remove the wheel to access the sway bar link, then use a wrench to loosen and remove the nuts securing the link to the sway bar and the lower control arm. Replace the old sway bar link with a new one, ensuring it is properly aligned, and tighten the nuts securely. Finally, reattach the wheel, lower the vehicle, and check for proper installation before driving.
A sway bar re-distributes weight while turning (to increase steering performance) and a control arm connects the body of the car to the steering knuckle which the wheel attaches to.
They would be connected to two control arms, one upper control arm and one lower control arm.
A "lift" link I've never heard of. But a stabilizer link is located at each end of the sway bar that runs roughly beteween the front wheels. The link connects the swaybar to the lower control arm.
To replace the control arm on a Ford Escape, first lift the vehicle and securely support it on jack stands. Remove the wheel and disconnect the necessary components, such as the sway bar link and ball joint, from the control arm. Unbolt the control arm from the chassis and the steering knuckle, then install the new control arm in reverse order, ensuring all bolts are torqued to the manufacturer's specifications. Finally, reattach the wheel and lower the vehicle.
You will know when the control arm bushing should be replaced by the way the vehicle drives. The back end will sway back and forth.
