Lots of votes for the swaybar links...I ordered new ones (extended length for the new coils) so I will see if that fixes it strut/coil bolts are nice and tight cheers

Ok, I have ordered new 2nd gen rear links to go in the front and I will see how that looks.

When I go over a divet/bump, low spot in a sidewalk (like my driveway) or speed bump slowly, I get a metal knocking sound in the front end, usually when I go over on an angle so the truck is also rocking side to side slightly What would be the first areas to check, aside from checking every...

Why are these two links longer than each other, even if they are both from 2nd gen 4runner rears?

I replaced all bushings in the lower/upper control arm and panhard bar. I swapped in FRONT sway bar links (longer) into the rear to help level the sway bar. I will take it for a ride tonight, and then upload pictures of the panhard bar too

The panhard went in perfectly. All other bolts for the 4 control arms I had to ratchet in place 1/4". I can't wait to take it for a ride tonight!

Got this deal for $30.12 incl. taxes Thanks!

I'd love to see a picture too. My clearcoat has bubbled....I will double check to make sure the PO hasn't removed the insulation!

Thanks for the info- they're at the shop pressing the old bushings out so I hope everything goes well tonight putting them back in

I am replacing my rear upper and lower control arm bushings and also bought new panhard bushings. At the moment the truck is on jackstands on the frame and the rear axle is lowered until the tires just contact the ground. This is holding everything in place. I was able to easily remove all 4...

Great info! I will park on a level spot to see if/how bad my sway bars are from level Cheers

Great info! If the sway bar isn’t level... does it cause more sway or??

thats interesting, maybe I just need to let them settle in a bit I just got stock length swaybar links so I hope I don't need to replace them again lol

I ordered upper/lower rear control arm bushings as well as panhard bushings so I'll see how that tightens it up first (as it was already on my list for the last 6months) as it seems a lot of people with 1-2" of lift with my setup haven't noted issues without adjusting the panhard

How are your control arms holding up? I've heard mixed reviews on Febest parts...
