    Hello,

    I took my son’s Gen 3 to the local dealer and they suggested replacing both front sway bar end links.
    These are the pictures they provided me to support their decision.

    They quoted $560 for the job, but we cannot afford it now.
    How critical is it to get these done? It seems left side has only bottom bushing gone, while the right side has only top bushing busted.
    Thanks for your help.

    I'm working on my suspension right now too. These are quiet easy to replace. If you don't feel comfortable working on cars I'd call local mechanics and check prices. Some mechanics might even be ok if you buy and supply the part. Don't expect any warranty if you go that route. Dealerships always charge way to much
