Your videos are very helpful. That mechanic is good at explaining what she is doing without a bunch of other nonsense.

Instead of using a grinder or locking pliers simply insert an allen wrench into the spinning spindle, in the lower portion of the link, and use a box wrench on the nut, instead of a socket. It is way easier, faster, safer...its the whole reason the end of the bolt is hollowed out....for an allen wrench.
LOL. stripped out almost immidiatley. But try it first, might get lucky.
I’ll probably be watching your video here over and over again I just bought these parts from your company I’m going to attempt this repair myself very soon on a 2010 Toyota Tacoma access cab👍
Watching this video made me realize that the sway bar link replacement was something I could tackle on my own. Went ahead and ordered them from 1A Auto for my new (to me) '06 Tundra DC. Had to grind off one of the nuts just like Sue did. Truck rides great now and this video gave me everything I needed to do the job myself. Well done!

Why no impact wrench?
WHAT A PROJECT?!
Getting the old one off was no joke. She just sliced the nut off. I, instead, tack welded the other side in place and used an impact wrench to free the nut. I also wire wheeled the threads before hand and soaked them in WD40. And it still broke the weld three times. Good luck everybody else.
When tightening the bottom stud hold Allen wrench in locked position, and tighten nut with wrench otherwise it just keeps spinning the don’t show that on here.
+TheBmoreson1 Thank you for your feedback!
Yeah I had to do the same
Anything like vice scrips or channel locks, will work just to get it going. Once you get so far it doesn't spin anymore. It's simple stuff, many ways to go about it.
Thank you, I hate to say it, but I'm glad something went wrong during your install, because I was able to learn from it! I too have an '03 Tundra.
Thanks for this very helpful I’ll be ordering parts from 1AAUTO !
God, thank you for this video - I ran into every problem she did, and this vid told me how to get through it!
Sue did a great job. I wish more mechanics was like her.

Theres a spot on the end of that bottom bolt for a torx or hex. The only reason i watched this was to see if you mention what size it is.
Gotta love a good tundra. I've experienced this exact situation before
Thank you from 🇲🇽
No torquing? I would also remove sway bar, remove the rust and repaint it.
No need for torquing. It's adjustable.
My 2010 Toyota Tacoma access cab pick up needs this part,,,looking at the truck from the front it’s the one on the right side the driver side,,,that’s the exact style that my Tacoma is using,,,,the one that you install in your video.
I got the whole kit from eBay, same parts they're using very cheap. Ball joints was easy to change too. I just need to put my shocks on now, it all came for about $280 at the time.
thanks Teacher
Hi, hoping for a reply, as I’m going to attempt this today. Is there a positive OR a negative to raising the vehicle (other than access). I’ve read on some forums to NOT raise the vehicle. Not sure why. Tension? 🤷🏼♂️ Any input would be appreciated.
Everyman,
2 2006 tundras. One lift on each. No issues.
Having that lower stud under tension might help keep it from turning
Whoa old clip but heck worth a try, which one is a left passenger and which one is a driver side sway bar end links? Or it's the same so it doesn't matter which one belong to which side?
Good job
What is that part called that is right in the center of the frame at the start of the video? Has a boot about 8 inches long and e inch diameter and inside the boot is a ball joint. Nobody at parts shop knows what it is called or how to get it.
in the first part, you used the flat rubber's, when it goes to the install, you used the tapered ones...
+T P Thanks for the feedback!
She also used the big washer on top and bottom. With the big washer on top it really took a lot of tightening to get the bushing pressed out far enough.
Do you have to do an alignment after replacing the sway bar links?
+@TrevorOlin-m9h It is not necessary to do an alignment after replacing the sway bar links.
Do I need to grease the part after install?
What model of half-inch drive snap on flex head ratchet are you using is that an SLA 80??? I don’t have any flex head ratchet’s I think i should probably get one I have looked at Harbor freight icon and craftsman at Lowe’s and have seen some on Amazon a lot of people seem to like gear wrench but there’s several different models of those to choose from???idk????
I have never fixed a car before, but it looks pretty easy to replace it. Only thing is that I don't have any tools or a car lift to replace my sway bar link. 😞
this is easily done with the vehicle on the ground.
torque wrench? torque value?
no power tools?
Strange that you didn’t give any torque specs on the nut to sway bar and nut to lower control arm. Good thing for chilton and haynes manuals
So... just what are the torque specs that you speak of? Please enlighten us.
What are the torque specs?

Thanks
Is it critical that after doing a job like this I should get a front-end alignment? I'm assuming so, but you didn't mention it..... thanks.....
you won't need an alignment after this
Came here to see if there was a trick I was missing. Guess the trick is a cut off wheel.
Oh the rust. Yuck. Why not put a dab of anti seize in a few key points so next time you'll get lucky?
good otherwise
your video shows many of your instructions backward, all over the place, and misleading. such as; the rubber bushings that you use bcuz you were not sure of by looking at the OE, so you decided & determined the non-nipple bushings is not the one, so you use the other flat bushings. but then when you installed the top i noticed you apparently switched over to the nipple bushings, and you failed to mention that on your video. it seems deceptive on your part. although, i still appreciate the video.
So many mistakes here
