Rusted thru left side sway bar link (Wisconsin/ Michigan car). Replaced both sides in the driveway. Not simple as the wrench swing arc is very limited... proving the right tool makes it much easier. Like air or electric driven tools ! Quite the 'klonking' noise when turning the steering wheel L or R. Good now.
