Front end part ID

I’m assuming this is not correct as the rubber grommet is cracked and appears to be leaking grease. Just not sure what this support bar is called. Anyone know?

 

Sway Bar End Link

 

Should I replace them with OEM or another brand? These lasted almost 90k

 

I'm not paying $110+ each for OEM.
I'll take the Mevotech for $25 each.

As for what you should do? That is up to you.
You can pick from $9.00 Ultra-Power to OEM at $110.00 each.

 

I wouldn't be afraid of aftermarket on that part.

 

Yes, that is a "sway bar end link". There is one on the other side too.

Easy replacement. Any aftermarket replacement is A-OK. My suggestion:

Just replaced mine after 3 years of ripped boots. Got a cheap pair off of rock auto, easy simple quick fix.

 

I just got moog greaseable ones. I can buy like 9 pairs of moogs before I reach the cost of OEM
Originals were all loosey goosey so I’m hoping the new ones tighten up the feel, paired with poly sway bar bushings.

 

My ahead and bought the Moog with grease fittings. Do they come already packed with grease or am I to fill them up? Thanks

 

I filled mine cause I couldn’t tell. I don’t think they did because new grease is what came out of the front of the boot when they were full.
Takes like two pumps.

 

How often have you been having to fill them?

 

Sway bar? Who has a sway bar?

​

 

Question for someone else lol, I am still waiting to install them.
I had to move a ton out of the way to replace them

I’ll probably just do them every oil change or so, takes 10 seconds.

 

Us second gen chumps I guess

 

According to Google, Mevotech and MOOG are the actual manufacturors Toyota uses. If thats correct or not I do not know. But sounds like you are safe skipping the dealership markup. Rock Auto has both MOOG and Mevo available. greasable and non.

 

It was a 2nd genner that talked me into taking mine off...no looking back!

 

You removed all that to replace the end links??

 

I know I know, I was lazy and just swung the knuckle to the side. I should have fully removed it. Go easy on me, I was in a rush.

 

I do
In my shed

 

Not lazy at all, I didn't have to remove anything to replace my end links, I do have a 2wd though...
