[alfa] anti-swaybar links

["Derek Ealy" <dealy663@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Both the rear swaybar links on my 88 Milano Verde have broken. I ordered 
replacements from APE and installed them this weekend only to find that one 
of the bushings that rests in the hole of the swaybar is missing. Maybe it 
decayed to the point it could fall out or maybe a mechanic took things apart 
and didn't put it back in I dunno.

But the problem is where can I get one of these replacement bushings? This 
is probably gonna be difficult because this is an aftermarket swaybar (from 
AR Ricambi I believe) which I doubt is being made anymore. Does anyone know 
if the bushing is the same size for the OEM swaybar and the one from AR 
Ricambi?

I've never had a set of swaybar links break on me before. It makes me wonder 
if the OEM links aren't strong enough for the stiffer swaybar. Does anyone 
have any thoughts on how I might locate something that would fit and be 
stronger than the OEM links?

Thanks in advance,

Derek
