how far away is the disco from the sway bar? youe best bet is getting someone to sit/stand on the bumper on whatever side you are working on to get it in.

and to finish it off one of my end link bolts is stripped I guess....is it bad to leave the other one connected and drive 3 miles to home depot? I can put the bolt through and tighten it down but there is about an inch of movement with the bolt......

I would take both of them off and then go to home depot, just take turns slow. you will notice alot of body roll, just drive carefully!
