Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video we're going to show you how to replace a sway bar link on this 2004 Volkswagen Jetta. We show you on the passenger side but the driver's side is the same procedure. You'll need a new sway bar link from 1AAuto.com, a 16mm socket and ratchet and a 16mm wrench. A jack and jack stands are recommended but optional. You can get to the sway bar link just by turning your wheels but it's usually pretty difficult to get in there and get the leverage you need to get the bolts out, so most likely you'll want a jack and jack stands to help you get underneath the car and get better leverage to get the bolts loose.
Your sway bar link is located right here and in the same spot on the other side. It's held in with two 16-mm bolts and the best way to remove the top one is with the 16-mm wrench on one side and a 16-mm socket and ratchet on the other. The lower one doesn't even need a wrench to hold it. You can do this without jacking up your car. Make sure it's on a flat surface and turn the wheels all the way to one side and you'll be able to access the links. Once it's removed, the sway bar link pulls right off.
On the left is the old sway bar link. On the right is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical and they'll fit exactly the same. Take your new sway bar link and push it into place and just twist the bolt in to hold it in and then twist the upper bolt in. Replace the nut and then just tighten those up.
