Hi guys,

 

Can someone point me to how to replace the rear sway bar/stabilizer links?
I looked through the 126 CDs and no explicit section for that.  I see the
obvious connection at the top of the link to the sway bar with the nut to
remove and take off there.  But on the bottom, it seems to connect somehow
to the hub/wheel housing and I can't tell how?  Is it just screwed in there
with the threads so after taking the top off you unscrew it at the bottom?
Or, is there a nut hidden somewhere I can't get to which needs to come off -
meaning the whole hub has to come apart?  I can't image its that difficult.

 

Any tips on doing this so nothing gets stripped in the process - like
prelubing the connections or using special tools, etc?

 

Thanks in advance,

Markus Meyer
