Replaced my original swaybar bushings with the fabric lined moog.. They still squeek by hand!
I'm wondering if that's even the squeek I hear in the wintertime..

Unfortunately when I hogged out the broken bolt, I hit the threads so I had to throw a nut behind there
Ended up with a 17mm hex, you can reach an open end wrench on it and thats about it.

Makes compressing the bushing more difficult, but I got lucky and had enough threads left to draw the bolt up and through where I could attach the nut to finish compressing the bushing.

Can thru-holes get helicoiled? I might try that if i ever get back in there..

Ouch, mine was off center too, but not as much.

How did you fix yours?

I'd just riv-nut or nut-sert that hole.

I had the wife take the Tahoe to the dealership for its yearly emissions.
prior tire shop I always go to failed it as "tampered" since I had an oil catch can and a second upstream o2 sensor for my wideband gauge.
They told me I had to go to the county and were really rude about the whole "Tampered" ********.
Said my tahoe was now flagged and only they could release it.


Whatever, I tossed a new Y pipe w/o a sensor bung and pulled the catch can setup.
No issues whatsoever with the other shop/dealer.
Maybe they just confirmed my "mods" are gone? IDNK, but it's done, and I didn't have to deal with the fkn county w/horrible google reviews!!


Catch can is going back on asap, but I'm probably doing a quick disconnect setup for next year, or I'll hide/blend it in better.
