Default Replacing end links - advice needed

When replacing the sway bar end links, do I need to do anything other than loosen and remove the 2 bolts on the end links themselves to replace? Thanks

Are you replacing them with factory or adjustable end links? Be sure to measure the stock distance bolt to bolt to pre-set the new adjustables if that's what you replacing them with.

Good luck, I went through almost 2 complete stock end link sets under warranty before I went with the heavy duty adjustables, all under 20K miles.
