@@theodorebrown309 hey,there is not such a thing as a dumb question. Better be sure than sorry. I don’t think it’s possible to do it with the car on the ground as it’s weight will put pressure on the suspension and it will be hard to remove the nuts and even harder to properly align the part when installing. As well it might be dangerous to remove suspension components if the car is not properly lifted. So, it will be necessary to remove the tires to carry out this job.
They are the same in terms of dimension and shape. The only difference is that the new ones have Allen key type bolt whereas the old ones use the octagonal nut shape to remove/install the links. It's quite common to find this differences in aftermarket parts.
My old links are loose and the new ones are tight. Wasn't sure if that was an accident it or not, but this video answered it. Thanks so much!
Good stuff man, the sound of the tools at work is so satisfying.👍🏾
Nicely done! 👍
Awesome job 👏 👍🏿 🙌 👌🏼
So you’re not going to torque it under load? Unless your other tire is also on a jack, it’s gonna need replacing in another few months
My new links didn't mind up with the holes. They are the same size.
Am I dumb for asking if you have to take the tire off? Can the car be on the ground?

That ratcheting wrench, is it from Mac tools?
Was the new one different to bolt on it look way different when removing
