A friend of my mom’s took her car to get inspected at monroe. They said she need a stabilizer link ASAP or her suspension would fail and her car would crash. I looked around at both sides of the front suspension and found nothing other than bad struts (which they also recommended). BTW: my moms friend is a 28 year old relatively hot italian girl, so i think they may have been trying to screw her over… It’s a 98 sebring with dual wishbone suspension, for the record… Both sway bar links were perfectly fine. ---

Take her car back yourself and ask them to show you what they’re talking about. Then, after you save the day, you can get some 28 year old relatively hot italian ass. ---

PiCs Of GiRl In QuEsTiOn! Anyhow, it’s a sway bar end link. And you can drive around with it totally disconnected, and no, you won’t crash your car. I did it in the Celica because I wanted to see what would happen. The Car just had as much body roll as a Greyhound bus. ---

Is it a Sebring convertible? If so it was based on the JA platform a la Cirrus/Stratus/Breeze. They handle nicely when the tire sidewall isn’t HUGE and flexible. But then they ride worse than a castoga wagon. ---
