Gotta work to get my money to support my expensive habit . Besides after we figured out we couldn’t fix the suspension Sunday without ordering some parts ( which by the was all I was asking about to start with ) we installed a snorkel on my busted up LJ

Just reading through this - am I correct that the the jeep is literally self destructing so a snorkel was installed-

So for the springs to keep them from rotating on the perches try these;

For sway bar mounts you can’t do better than these;

As for the Control Arms these should suffice,

Thank you f
Thank you for being the only person to answer me on all of my questions
It is greatly appreciated ! May I ask you one more ? For the upper control arm mount on the passenger side do you have a recommendation ?

I did a similar mount and joint and it really made a difference. The stock mount is pretty thin- works but is basically heavy sheet metal.
Everyone here is willing to help in anyway possible. Recommended replacement parts are one thing. However if we don’t know what caused the damage and components to fail then we are just setting ourselves up for another failure. That is why most were asking more questions and for more pictures. To try to grasp The Whole situation of how/what led to the carnage. It wasn’t until today that you stated the sway bar mounts had been broken for a while before the arm. That changes things from the first post.
It isn’t common to break the sway bar link mounts. So if we just suggest the parts and you fix it and it fails again then we must have suggested crappy parts. Being the damage is so odd we need to find out what caused it to really fix the issue.
