I don't even know if I am spelling it right but the mechanic said I have a bad strut and a broken "links" which is why my car sags low on the rear drivers side.

What is this links? Does it pay to just fix the link and leave the strut?


Can you repair the link and then do the strut at a later date?

Hi Curtis,

The Link that he is refering to is the Stabilizer Link or you may know it better by Sway Bar Link.

It will not pay to just replace the Link and not the Strut.

Hi Curtis,

Please when you login at the top of the page you will find a link that says "View Your Posts" click that link to see the posts you have made and use it to reply also. That way you don't have multiple posts and are not deleted or banned from the forum for multiple posts.

Here is you last post I just happened across.

You do not have to break the link in order to replace the Strut.

You can replace the link first then the strut later but wouldn't put off the strut to long.
