Sway bar is in place but the part you connect it to on the front passenger side is not attached to the sway bar, what is the part I'm thinking about it? I can't seem to think of it but it's what the sway bar connects to on front passenger side. Thanks in advance

The end-link?

It's what the end link connects to, mine got snapped in half and I want to fix it so it's not iffy any more

You must have the 87+ style with the balljoint, it's still called an endlink

Your design is not friendly to the bushings. I suspect this is why the later models (88-89) uses the ball jointed link which 1) saves the bushing and 2) solves the elongated hole problem in the (84-87) control arm. Your contraption is going to ream the shit outa that hole while obliterating the bushing…yes?

I never knew there was a elongated hole issue for the old ones (yes I put the kouki on the zenki).

I did check my bushings just now and it still looks good. Bushings are cheap, ill put new ones if I had to. Eventually I wanted to make a control arm that was beefed up and put a solid piece of metal instead of a bushing.

I just did it because it looked cool, and I wasn't willing to pay for aftermarket ones where I can just make these for around 60$

An heim joint could work.
