    Thank you for the very informative and comprehensive video. I used all of your steps to try and remove these easily accessible but extremely difficult nuts on my 2007 CRV. 1/2 hour with cheater/hammer/mapp gas on the upper end to get it out. 1 hour on the lower + fire cloth to protect sensor wire, brake line and cv boots only to get it a bit loose. Finally 5 minutes with Lennox diamond cut off wheel in angle grinder-yes, I had to cut through the relatively large diameter flange against the sway bar because I could not loosen nut enough for clearance to the screw shank (which would have taken only a minute to grind). Next time I will go straight to the grinder and save all that aggravation. The new Moog link has a hex flange on the ball side rather than that stupid hex hole in the end of the screw, making for much easier installation, and maybe removal if it goes bad in the next 220,000 miles.

    Wow...thanks for a REAL video showing what a pain these links are to remove .. ALl the other vids you see on youtube show a quick spray of WD40 and suddenly as if my magic everything can easily be removed. Ive done front and back links on my CRV. Fronts I managed to get them off the anti roll bar but impossible to get either side of the strut. Backs came off the struts but not the anti roll bar.

    Need to do this repair this week on wife's 2009 CR-V, we had the driver side done by mechanic, should have done both sides. Advice do both side if you are doing one side... Suggestion would also be if you can't get the nut out you might be able to use a nut cutter and make your life easier. Good video and thank you

  • @maxwellhouse1902

    1. I liked how you used the 3M green masking tape to hide the brand name of the penetrant company.
    2. Was curious why you used a 3/4"ratchet wrench for the tightening on the top fastener but went back to a 19mm for the torque application. The nuts I got with my NAPA "kit" didn't even have round bores for the stud and the disfigurement of the nut's hexagonal pattern made for a terrible attachment surface for either box end wrench, socket, or ratchet wrench. I ended up having to run a 12mm.x 1.25 tape though all four nuts to clean up the distortion in the thread bore. IF this was China's method to make a locking flange nut, they failed miserably, especially when the installer was going to have trouble with the stud spinning. To make sure the nuts didn't vibrate loose 5-10 years down the road, I simply used a thread locker product on the stud threads. The nuts from the rear links kit made in Thailand had no such trouble
    4. Was curious how you got the torque wrench in the tight spaces for the application of the 58-9 ft. pounds for the bottom fastener? This isn't the first 1A Auto video that has edited out or skipped over a "challenging" strep in the procedure.
    5. Even though it cost me $7 to purchase a pair of the Dremel stainless steel flat (as opposed to the cup style ) wire brush to get more rust off the exposed threads during removal, it was worth it. After applying the penetrant and waiting a few minutes, working the brush around the area where the penetrant needed access to the area where the stud and met, and then working outward to clean the rest of the threads, I reapplied the penetrant . I didn't see the benefit of the hand brushing as demonstrated in the video, especially since you couldn't get full 360 degree contact.with the bristles.

  • @yong5280

    Take out the top nuts first on both sides, take off both sides rod bushes holders (very important), than pull the rod out little to one side when you work on the lower nut, you will have enough room, do the same on the other side, it's very easy to take the lower nut off actually.

    I have a question: I hear a "clacking" apparently from the sway bar link on my driver side. I was inspecting both sides of my car and I can NOT see any loose or broken part on my links. they look like they are just fine. But clacking only when I pass uneven surface, little holes or bumps, on even roads car is smooth. I wonder if the problem is this link (although I don't see any damage) . I appreciate any input regarding this matter. Nice video. Thank you

    • @canadiandiver555
      @canadiandiver555 4 года назад +1

      Maybe its just starting, it will get worse as the balls on both ends get eaten up or ground up by the surrounding metal if it is the Links. But I would get a second opinion before doing anything. If its over... or at.... 10 years, just replace them cause they will go soon afterwards is my experience.

    • @edgarokras5695
      @edgarokras5695 4 года назад +1

    • @atommiller1182
      @atommiller1182 3 года назад +2

      To torque the lower nut, with the vehicle jacked up and supported by a jack stand under the frame, jack the lower control arm up by placing a jack under the ball joint and lifting the lower control arm until it’s parallel to the central axis of the stabilizer link stud. This should let you get a torque wrench on the nut. It will still be tight, but I just did this on a ‘13 crv today and it worked well.

      I thought he might be referring to those oscillating cutting tools used in cutting drywall etc. They make blades designed for cutting tile and hard metals that might get in there to cut.. A die grinder, especially like the Milwaukee battery powered tool, might My sawzall with metal blade did nothing to cut the hardened steel shafts. My Bosch battery angle grinder with the super thin cutoff wheel wasn't a great fit, but I was all I had to access the tight spots. Face Shield mandatory!!

    I like the way they show how to fix the car but the parts were not at all usable. I bought the sway bar links and the bolts do not screw all the way down as the bolts were stripped. I will not buy any more parts from 1A auto parts. I could get the same parts somewhere else cheaper and half the price, like on ebay. I bought from them thinking they have a solid reputation. Now I have to buy bolts to fix the car I drive everyday. I can't wait for a return. I paid so much for absolutely no reason. Incredibly disappointed and furious.
