Default Stock Sway bar linkage sucks...

Last might while installing rear sway bar, the allen head of the rear sway bar ends stripped, and I had to hack it off...meaning I have NO sway bar until the new ones come from ECS.

For $78 you can get upgraded ones that will stop your noise/movement.

Sorry..just wanted to vent about that
