IWSTI Addict since: Jun 2004 Trader Rating: (14)  |  Swaybar mount~weird discovery I was under the car replacing an exhaust manifold gasket today when I noticed that my passenger's side swaybar mount was hanging by a thread. The nut was still on (but loose) and the bolt was completely gone. Luckily, loworbitsi had a spare bolt that happened to be the right size and pitch so I replaced it but I just thought this was strange since the mounts were torqued to spec. Has anyone else had this happen? On the bright side, I discovered that I can remove my swaybar mounts easily without dropping the subframe since I have the spacers from my alk.

IWSTI Addict since: Apr 2006 Trader Rating: (0) | The bolts holding the swaybar bracket onto the swaybar mount on my car backed off and almost completely fell off of my car once. Fortunately I discovered it before I lost it. I check it frequently now.  |

IWSTI Addict since: May 2005 Trader Rating: (12) | I also found one of my swaybar mount bolts backed nearly all the way out awhile back. Now I use blue locktite...no problems since. This ad is not endorsed by this member. Please register or login to hide this ad. |
