The Moog stabilizer end link I replaced 5 years ago in 2018 on the passenger side has started clunking again, while the OEM ones on the driver side is still working fine, 13 years in service. Go figure. Not sure what is causing the passenger side one to keep going so frequently. Is Moog one of the economy brands mentioned that will go on a regular basis? Though it said in the video it would make no real difference, I didn't grease them since installation despite the availability of the zerk fittings. Don't know if it might have helped any if I did grease them periodically.

Thank you for this well made video !! In the list of symptoms you could add also the vibrations when braking. I had problems on my car, while braking I could feel big vibrations in the steering wheel, but I had not other noises. At first I suspected the disc brakes, then the pads, changed everything, still there.... Until one day when driving I heard a big noise while taking a turn. Found out my sway bar link had broken. I did not know what it was until then otherwise I would have checked it sooner ! I have been very lucky as the breaking of the sway bar link didn't damage anything else. After replacing it (and ofc having to saw it on one side, as the boltd was seized....) the vibrations where gone !

@EasyFixShaun Жыл бұрын

You are welcome. I am glad you figured out your problem. The links are in use so much while driving they can make noise at pretty much any time.

It ended up being the sway bar links.. well fast forward a year and I have the same issue again but I know what the issue is at least

@EasyFixShaun Жыл бұрын

Sorry you are having trouble. They are simple parts but can be easily confusing so I tried to help shed some light on them. If yours failed in less than a year, it could be aftermarket parts that were used. I have also seen fasteners loosen and make the noise a short while later that is exactly the same. Doesn't happen often but is worth checking that out. If its aftermarket parts get oem and you will have much better durability 😃🔧

Glad I could help! Genuine OEM stuff will usually last a long, long time. They originally were made to last the vehicles warranty period or longer. They are built well, generally. It's worth it to get OEM, especially with sway bar parts. Especially if you are keeping the vehicle or just want to deal with problems again 😀🔧

Thank you so much for this amazing video. Your descriptions matched an issue with my 2015 Explorer and I was able to find out that the bolt on the lower end was loose so I was able to tighten it up and it didn't cost me a penny.

Great to hear! I am glad you found it. I see loose/bad-links and also loose-fasteners like yours, all the time. Nice work sorting it all out 😃

Excellent video - thanks. You've confirmed my suspicions about my problem. Due to illness, i'm no longer able to work on my own vehicle (having done most repairs myself all my life). Last June 2023, i had a new right-hand side front coil spring, top strut mount and drop link fitted to my 2012 Ford Focus by a garage, following my MOT test. In September, having only driven around 300 miles since having the suspension repaired, i had a new washer pump fitted to the same side as it was on its last legs and I noticed that the drive-shaft boot was splitting, so i decided to take it to the same garage to have a new boot or shaft fitted (knowing how hard they can be to get off sometimes) and at the same time i asked to have a new lower swing arm fitted as the ball-joint was ever so slightly worn. Normally, i'd have changed everything on both sides, but money was an issue, so i decided to settle for just the right side for now. What a nightmare. I picked up my car, only to find it was knocking its head off, so i took it back to the garage. They decided the front strut was broken, the 3 month old top mount was destroyed, the new drop link was broken and a 4 month old track rod end was bent (what???? a track rod end bent??, never in my 57 yrs have i seen that). Having had everything replaced again, i reluctantly paid £525 and collected my car. Just 3 months after, it started knocking again and i am reluctant to drive it. I now have to pay again to find out what is causing the knocking, but your video suggests it is the drop link, which has done about 800 miles. It's the last time i take my car to a small garage. Halford's autocentres may be expensive, but they use genuine Ford parts and the work is guaranteed, saving hassle and money in the long term.

Yup oem parts may solve your problem. I have seen similar scenarios so many times. You get what you pay for. I have been there too and tested economy stuff because it looks so similiar and is way cheaper. It seems I get burned more times than not. With oem parts you are done with the problems. Sorry you are having trouble. hang in there 😃🍻

I finally spotted this video the eve I had the fix made. As the video suggests, I was hearing the noise behind my driving position and what I thought was over the bed of my tacoma. Initial vids I thought possible drive shaft U joint, etc. Mechanic called this morning and said right side link to sway bar was completely snapped or broken and the left one was there but also in bad shape. They were replaced and no more clanking sound with turns or with slow decelerations 20 - 15 mph. This video was really good; it really was true to what I was experiencing. And since it was first time to newer auto shop, I felt I was treated well and the shop has a competent crew doing good detail analysis.

Thank you, sir! I have a 4th gen 2014 awd CR-V that I forgot wasn't a Jeep, and violently off-roaded it and now it is making this sound. It's the family car. oops. Now I know what to replace, which is convenient because I am going to be replacing the rear rotors and pads in a couple weeks anyway... God bless!
