2000 - 2005 GM Front Sway Stabilizer Bar End Link Repair Chevrolet Cavalier & Pontiac Sunfire
Repair of a corroded front stabilizer (aka sway) bar link and replacement using genuine GM front end replacement parts. Because of the excessive rust and corrosion the end link bolt is stuck on the remaining part of the bushing, which we will have to remove / pry away before we can install the new link assembly and restore proper operation. The vehicle illustrated in the video is a 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier J-Body, but would apply to any 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 or 2005 Cavalier or Pontiac Sunfire.

The most recent sway bar link part number for these vehicles is GM 22710259. But you can also use earlier discontinued / superseded numbers GM 22657717, GM 22645963, or GM 22638799 end link assemblies:
This same GM part 22710259 is used on the following vehicles as well, so this video should apply for how to perform the repair on them as well, though the vehicle design is different:
Chevrolet Malibu 2000 - 2003
Chevrolet Malibu Classic 2004 - 2005
Pontiac Grand AM 2000 - 2005
Oldsmobile Alero 2000 - 2004
