The right side stabilizer bar link is broken and I can't get the new one in. What is the best way to put the new link in?

These are a pain in the butt. I find the bolt is usually too short(is that your problem. You can try using a jack on the bottom side of the bolt and force it up to compress the rubber and that should give you enough clearance to get the nut on. They offer a regular sway bar link and a heavy duty one, I find the regular one fits alot nicer.
