Tomorrow is the big day!can not wait!,is 50k too short of a suspension
rod/bushing lifespan?.Also going to see about the fog light.Are
plastic parts considered metal as far as repair?.I dont want to spend
a bundle just because a few plastic parts broke.Myinsurance would tell
me these parts dont enter the radar I would think as far as them
paying for it.

Are you talking about sway bar end-links? Had my SL2 rears replaced about
60k as they were pretty well frozen up.

That wasn't terrible as the end-links on my full size Ford van needed to be
replaced about every 25,000 due to either breakage or total failure of the
bushings.

Yes,that suspention bar that is connected from the strut down to the
bushing/suspension system.I'm very surprised that piece of steel is
only that thick!,the roads in NE Ohio are lousy &thats putting it
mildly.
