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.
Inspect the front end for loose/worn parts such as the ball joints, tie rod ends, idler arm, pitman arm, center link, control arm bushings, wheel bearings, shocks, sway bar bushings, sway bar end links and steering box adjustment. Replace what parts you find worn and have the front end aligned.
