You might be able to eliminate the noise just by lubricating the sway bar links. If the aftermarket ones have grease fittings, 'articulate' (twist) them before & after greasing them to work the grease in.

If you buy buy a grease gun, get a needle attachment for it as well. That allows you to lubricate the lower ball joints and ALL the OE end links that don't have grease fittings.

Grease gun (~$10 USD)

Extension flex hose ($4)

(Combo ~ $15)

Needle ($4)

Obviously I don't pierce through the boot,
I guess it was NOT obvious...😇

The needle pierces such a small hole in the rubber, that it self-seals. The small blob of residual grease keeps water/moisture out.

Years ago, I had a clunk over bumps. Didn't have new sway bar links, so I added the lubrication through the grease gun w/ needle until I could get new ones.

I DID receive the new parts, but to this day, I still haven't installed them... :rolleyes: :geek:
