^time for either a bigger front sway bar, or a stiffer front spring!

[jessew]

or new end-links... or all of the above....

[bronxbomber252]

unless the endlinks are broken to the point of no longer connecting the sway bar to the suspension... its gonna need more than new endlinks...

YEP THE PASS SIDE BOTOM OF THE LINK WAS BROKEN SO DUE TO THE WIERD WAY MUSTANG LINKS ARE DESIGNED IT ACTUALLY WORKED WHEN I WOULD TURN RIGHT BUT THE ARM JUST SLID UP THE SHAFT TURNING LEFT SO IN EFFECT IT HAD A HALF A SWAY BAR. ONLY IN A FORD HAHA....

[jessew]

i'm pretty sure the new ones aren't made that way. that sounds a lot like how the link is on my old nova. basicly some threaded stock with a welded washer that breaks and a washer and nut on top....

That is just how Ford Fairmonts handle, like they are drunk and trying to fall over.
