96 k3500 TD CC DRW, 173,000
Purchased used so I have no idea of its true history.
Noticed that the bolt and spacers on the stabilizer bar was missing on one side. Picked up a replacement, its the same size as the one that was still connected. I cant seem to get enough threads to show on the new one to make a connection. Wheels off up, on jackstands at frame, stabilizer bar dissconnect from frame. Any suggestions?
Also am going to replace entire front brakes, rotors, calipers(one is frozen), pads, and hoses. No real questions there. Also want to do upper and lower ball joints...... It appears that the uppers hav been previously replaced, since they are bolted on. The lowers seemed to be pressed in...am I correct there? any tricks to those?
Many thanks!
