Ok fellas...help me understand the Lower control arm, rear upper link, sway bar links
ok fellas, help me understand these things, what there purpose is and if I should swap them out.....here is the low down.
I just lifted my FJ(OME) heavy front, medium rear.....so it has about a 3 in lift going. I have seen that the lower control arms get bent up pretty good offroading(and I will be swapping these out for sure) but dont really understand what the DO?
also that goes for the rear upper links.....what do these do? and have seen where a member makes these....do I really need to swap them out? if so is it something I can do on my own in my garage?
last question sway bar links(jesus how many links does this FJ have? lol) ok I know there is a pair in the rear....and a pair upfront, I know that adding sway bar collars to the aluminum rings or in place of them will help to keep the front links from breaking(so I think I will just do that) but the rear links? do these need to be swapped out? and what do they do exactly?
sorry if this is all newbie questions but my brain is a sponge and I am trying to soak it all up......its all very confusing to me and I dont know if I really need to spend the money to upgrade some of this stuff....or just keep it stock
any help or insight would be MUCH appreciated....I thank you
