lol... literally the longest part of the job was unboxing it and taking off the stupid plastic cover it shipped with. No jack, just a single socked, torque wrench (yep, everything I unscrew goes back on to bolt spec to the very inch-pound!) in I'd say under 2 minutes flat.

I'll give ya all a seat of the pants feel ride result tomorrow see if it does anything noticeable.

 

ps. what are the rubber ends on the "drag link" that connect to the "drop arms", are those tie rod ends or ball joints? I'm not a steering parts person as you can tell! they are trashed but they are covered in crap and I couldnt get a good look after the sun came down to see if they are part of the long arm, the drop piece or something intermediate that can be replaced by themselves.

 

I think those are tie rod ends. I would check your power steering hoses where they enter your steering box which is above that area. They are probably leaking.

 

can i just replace that end piece or does the entire bar have to be replaced?

 

For that side the whole damn thing needs replacing.The other end of it can be swaped out with a new ball joint.
