Sway bar link came unbolted

[tommyturbo]

Out of the blue I looked under my 95, and the passenger side end link had lost the nut that attaches it to the sway bar, the link was just hanging loose next to the strut. Has anyone else had this happen? Got a new but and reattached it. Can they work them selves loose? It's a 95, but it's been upgraded to 24 / 26 bars.

They're supposed to be locking nuts. I had one of the rears on my '03 Taurus work itself loose, the clicking (before the nut came all the way out) was quite obvious though.

Never had one come loose, but they can be a bastard to remove!

here in the great rust belt they never, ever, really never, come loose.

Was it a front? Yes, I've seen fronts come loose.

Front passenger side.

Yes, usually only the cutting torch can get them off!
