Front Stabilizer Link Questions

[kicksock]

Now that summer is over here in Phoenix and I can have the windows down on my 93 SSE, I started noticing sounds like a chain rattling when going over road bumps. It seems the rubber isolators on both front stabilizer links are totally gone causing the metal retainers and the bolts to rattle loosely. Can I just buy the isolators or do I need to replace the whole thing? Seems like a relatively easy fix but my FSM just mentions tightening them loosely when reassembling. What does that mean? Just snug enough to prevent movement? I can't seem to find any other references about this in the manual.

Thanks in advance.

pretty sure you have to replace every part of the end link


they are cheap enough

might want to go with some energy suspension endlinks...and if the endlinks are toast...the bushings probably aren't doing much better... doing them on all 4 corners will definitely tighten up your handling..and of course, getting rid of that rattling.
