I slapped together a sway bar link and a disconnect. Would love to hear your guys input and opinions on them. Im a beginner with the welding and fabbing up stuff. Dont pay any attention to the funny looking bushings. Those were just used for the mock up. Stull need tp get some new bushings for the setup. Theyre not quite done yet. Still need to do a little trimming maybe and put a coat of paint on them when it warms up

Material used was some 5/8" threded rod cut in 12" lengths, some 5/8" square tubing and a 1/4" wire lock pin on the disconnect. Should be pretty stout im hoping, much beefier that the factory 7/16" pieces







Sorry for such big pictures, not sure how to resize them.
 






Does the threaded rod want to bind up on the square sleeve that it slides in and out of?
