GhostPath Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 My 90 WD21 has 231K on the clock and yesterday the suspension started clanking when I went over bumps. Today I pulled some maintenance time and investigated.... New ones are on order now. I haven't even done any serious offroading yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 BOTH of them busted? Very strange! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostPath Posted December 30, 2007 Author Share Posted December 30, 2007 Yup, both of them. 231,000 miles and hard street driving will do that, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 umm, yeah not so often... 330,000+ and mine are still solid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostPath Posted December 30, 2007 Author Share Posted December 30, 2007 Well, mine patently aren't, and I haven't gone offroading at all with the truck, aside from using a "Texas Exit" or three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 (edited) For the uninitiated like me, what exactly am I looking at? I can clearly see that something's broken but is it the front ARB? Edited December 30, 2007 by Harvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nissandoms47 Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Its the sway bar link mounts tabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 (edited) Mine aren't even broken on my old red one, and it has some bad rust! And 220k miles. What kind of driving would do that? Edited December 30, 2007 by redfinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh... drifting sideways around freeway "cloverleaf" offramps comes to mind. I *do* have poly bushings on the sway bar, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denisb Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Must've gotten pretty sloppy handling when those broke. Considering these aren't really made for such use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
