MOOG Sway Bar Link - amzn.to/3iZwSLI Here is a link to the Moog Sway Bar Link I installed in my Sienna and is shown in this video. Thanks for watching! 👍

Dealer just quoted me $484 to do this. Thanks for the video and saving me $460

[@PracticalMechanic]

Nice work! Glad it helped!

[@Twitch_Moderator]

Dang shops, man!!! People are just trying to survive!! $484 sound like they were charging 2 hours of labor. Plus parts and shop fees. 😑

[@telecasterman18]

That is an idiotic quote. Even though those stupid end links cost something like $120 per today (2024). They’re charging you $120 labor and shop costs per side for a 15-20 min per side job.

same just got quoted 400 for it. guess for parts its like 140 and labor

*The bottom nut and joint/threads will ALWAYS be seized. So, cut it off with a hand saw and metal-cutting blade or a reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade.* *Then, use a dremel or a drill with a tiny 1.5 inch or 2 inch diameter cut-off disc to get the rest of the joint shaft/threads out of the sway bar mounting hole*.

thank you sir i have a 2011 sieanna that van a champ no joke i have to replace my sway bar links on both sides

[@PracticalMechanic]

You are absolutely right! They are excellent vehicles if taken care of, that's for sure!

[@tsukki_amv2848]

Thanks for the video. My one owner 2007 Sienna with 132k miles is making the clunking sound upfront. The sway bar feels loose by hand so I will try to tackle this my self.

[@PracticalMechanic]

Great! Good luck 👍!

[@faithkhalil8062]

Hey PM! Thank you, that was very informative and simple at the same time. Is it recommended to replace both sides at the same time? I’m in a tight spot right now and can only afford one of the bars until next week.

[@PracticalMechanic]

You're welcome, glad to help! Yes, it is recommended to do both at the same time. That being said, I was in a similar situation when I did this one, so I only changed the one. The other one started to fail (clunk) within 3 months! So now I've replaced that one, too. Good luck, and all the best!

I need help I got that radio you reviewed and installed on that handa accord well I installed it and the heat works for the AC but there’s no cold air anymore

[@PracticalMechanic]

Glad you got the radio! Hope you like it so far! For the AC, check a couple of things: if you have dual climate control, DON'T use the y-cable that came with the kit! Also, you may need to change the canbus settings, to select your vehicle. If you didn't see it already, here is a link on how to change those. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5C1io2XnNOBrqc If it's still not working after that, I recommend you contact the manufacturer, they are quite responsive. Good luck 👍!

my sway bar needs to be replaced, but the suspension is jamming the removal. How do I lift the up the exposed back of the tire without putting the car down? where do I use the jack without causing damage

[@vernonarmstrong3738]

Earned a sub from me!

[@PracticalMechanic]

Thanks

[@luisjimenez5898]

How many Stabilizer Bar Link are required: one or two? Left and right? Thanks

[@PracticalMechanic]

Two. One for the left and one for the right. The left and right are identical.

[@Hoondju]

just got quoted 400 for this but after seeing the cost for the parts and extra stuff i need to buy to fix it like wrenches and stuff i just decided to pay the 400. i would have fixed it if i already had the extra parts. maybe if it happens again but it literally lasted 15 years without a fix so hopefully this one last a good while again. but anyways good video.

[@PracticalMechanic]

Thanks for the feedback! Good to know an approximate price for the repair from a qualified shop. All the best! 👍

[@phillipefarneti1380]

My sienna has over 200k milies

[@PracticalMechanic]

Nice, well done! Mine just rolled over 260k, great vehicles, aren't they?!?! 👍
