Gene Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Hello I have a 93 Eldorado and i replaced the Stabilizer Bar Links last April 2005 aand they are rattling again! Yes they have zerk fitting that get greased every oil change(3000 miles). I was hoping that they would last alot longer! The passenger side on the bottom is the worst! Yes i know they will replace them! But i didn`t want to that job again as i allready did the job once! At this point i am thinking i should have went to the dealer for OE ones! I have only 17,000 miles on this set! How long have yours lasted? OE and Moog. Thanks Gene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I replaced mine at ~105-110K simply as a preventive maintenance kinda thing since it was already on the lift. No improvement was noticed or expected (baby sees mostly highway mileage and local roads are well maintained). A repeat at only 17K would really alter my mood. Any chance there's a contributing factor at work here? Regards, Warren There is no means of avoiding the final collapse of a boom brought about by credit expansion. The alternative is only whether the crisis should come sooner as the result of a voluntary abandonment of further credit expansion, or later as a final and total catastrophe of the currency system involved. - Ludwig von Mises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAC Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Interesting, since I suspect my Moog ball joints, which I replaced about a year ago, are already bad. Now, I’m going to buy an ACDelco replacement just to test my theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, Warren I'll buy one ACDelco ball joint and if the popping sound goes away, suspicions confirmed. At this point, I'm willing to give it a try.

BodybyFisher Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Additional shock and stress can be put on your stabilizer links due to bad stabilizer bar bushings and bad struts... I would have a look at them. I am a BIG fan of MOOG... unless they all of a sudden are making inferior parts Pre-1995 - DTC codes OBD1 >> 1996 and newer - DTC codes OBD2 >> https://www.obd-codes.com/trouble_codes/gm/obd_codes.htm How to check for codes Caddyinfo How To Technical Archive >> http://www.caddyinfo.com/wordpress/cadillac-how-to-faq/ Cadillac History & Specifications Year by Year http://www.motorera.com/cadillac/index.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikolai Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Not sure, but I made my own when I upgraded the rear sway bar. Addco didn't drill the endlinks large enough for the stock links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Posted June 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Hello The links are for the front! I also relaced the front sway bar bushings that go on the frame. I still had a faint rattle once i replaced the links so that is why the bushings were replaced!. So my bushings are somewhat new! That rattle just drives me Nuts! I will call today about getting a replacement. Thanks Gene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
