Nothing wrong with those links.......they are solid and the bushings are in good shape.


Mechanically the car is close to perfect, it's full time garaged and only very part time driven, it gets a coat of wax twice a year but it's no trailer queen. It's driven and things like sway bar links will reflect that fact.
I drive my 77 in all sorts of weather, and my ES sway bar links are still pretty much gold and shiny.

I put the VB&P Preformance package w/off-set trailing arm's on my car and what a differance in the handling and ride.
With their slotted brake package, my braking is a lot better also.
With the shocks, Pattie recommended KYB with the package.
Great upgrade for any Vette.
