Sway Bar Link Replacement Procedure?
Need to replace this passenger side link on my 04 F350 TD

More Information for RAYBESTOS 5451423

Any directions would be appreciated. In particular, do I need to jack anything up or what?

Thanks

Tom in VA Beach

subscribing means I will get notification of the answers to your question. I just got new end links for my f450 and want to brush up on the install procedure.

Here's a good one. This details replacing the bushing. If you're replacing the complete link you'll skip most of the procedures.
