Got the new ones in. Probably could go shorter a half inch more but I think this is close to straight. Rqydareju.jpg

Can't tell yet. Probably won't be able to tell at all but it's a step in the right direction. Lots more tweaking to do.

Anyone know what the front chassis stabilizer size bushings are from energy suspension on the Denali. Definitely going to change those as well. I can see the brand new oem ones flex way too much when turning the wheel and jumping on the running board.

Looking at Moog's catalog, they list three different sway bar diameters. 36MM, 1 1/8" or 1 1/4"

Sorry for digging up an old thread, but I'd rather search and respond to the proper thread than start a new one. Having said that, is this replacement of the stabilizer links done due to a popping sound when turning at semi slow speeds with some force put on the suspension? Meaning, I recently noticed a popping sound when making turns and usually when going over dips while turning, and it's definitely something metal that's popping. Kind of like the sound a shoulder would make popping out of a socket for those with an imagination. Doesn't happen all of the time, but it has happened a few times now in the past month. truck has 108K on it now. Looks like something easy to replace. I'm traveling right now so I can't check them, but I'm curious if this thread is the problem I started having.

Thanks all.

I just replaced mine today, steering felt weird for about a week when going over small bumps at low speeds like pulling out a driveway. Then today I heard a clunk, came home and took a look under the truck and found my drivers side link broken. Took about 15 minutes to ****** out and replace both.
I'm just glad I remembered reading this thread an knew what it was right away. I just checked them about 3 weeks ago when I did my oil and they looked fine just a little dry rotted so I planned on changing them soon anyway.
