Sway bar links explorer '98

[johnbarney]

I just purchased sway bar links for my explorer. Unfortunatly the directions are very vague to say the least and the old ones have gone so I cant make a comparison. Would anyone have a pic of how they look installed as I dont know which is top or bottom (which I assume would be the treaded end) or how the washer bearings are installed as one end is tapered different.
Thanks a mil. for any help

they are real easy! just did mine. clamp some vice grips to them, unscrew the bottom nut. or put a wrench on the top and then unbolt the bottom. if they are corroded and rusted, hit them with some PB blaster overnight. Then just hammer them out from the bottom. i needed to use bolt cutters on mine they were so bad :/. PM me if you have some questions.
