I compress the cup and the link in a vise. One side will start to go in, then I coax the rest of it in with a blunt screwdriver. Figure on 3-5 minutes per socket, once you have the technique perfected. The Cap'n

So what do you need a rear sway bar for anyway? Big channel locks for the bar end. and a 2lb hammer on the trailing arm end. line it up MOVE YOUR FINGER and whack. it should go right on. |
