Endlink Measurement Request
PLEASE. Anyone who has a 92-99 bonneville with an FE1 suspension that is planning on installing energy suspension endlinks on the front, I have a favor to ask.
.
Assuming you don't take the wheels off and do the install by rolling the car up on ramps:
When you unbolt/cut the old endlinks off, can you measure from the hole of the swaybar to the hole in the control arm?
.
The bar will raise slightly when the endlink is off.
It'* probably best to put a string between the two points then measure that.
The pourpose is to see how much if any I have to modify my endlinks to have the correct preload on the sway bar. Right now it'* higher and preloaded more since my car is dropped 2".
Edit: Thanks Bill for helping me figure this out.
