    Sway bar/lower control arm wear

    Advice taken. Re-checked the suspension and drivers side upper control ball joint is shot. Also went back and somewhat corrected the outer tie rod ends that were installed and measured there distance on each side. Car performs much better. But definitely doing upper control arm and alignment.

    Since before putting on the tie rod ends ( outer ), tires wore much less. I will finish with uppers and flowers then an alignment.

    Sway bar/lower control arm wear

    Jorge, thank you for that response. That makes perfect sense since the aluminum is so soft I understand the wear under pressure. I will order new sway bars and try the washer method. But a local salvage yard has a control arm in fantastic shape and that may be my Avenue of repair for now.

    Sway bar/lower control arm wear

    I'm brand spanking new to the forum and Lincoln. Having steering vibration, checked front suspension and found the sway bar and control arm connection has severe wear. Not sure why though. The wear is at the connection to the lower. I would appreciate any guidance.
