+--- Thread: removal and installation of sway bar drop links on 964 (/showthread.php?tid=1455)
- AMoore - 10-13-2008
I am replacing the sway bar drop links on my 1993 964. When I try to loosen the top nut that holds the link in place, it turns the entire ball joint that is attached to the nut. How can I freeze the ball joint/bolt so that the nut can be removed? Is there hex or torx fitting on the other side of the ball?

Do you have both wheels off the ground?

Aaron
Is this the drop link that you are replacing? there is a hex "nut" on the back end of the stud. Just use a wrench in the back and undo the top nut.
Good luck

Thanks for posting that Lou.

Lou, thanks. I dropped the car off at Dougherty's. Inexpensive install. I had to get my front tires rebalanced anyway.
