Hello all, while under my car today I noticed that my front sway bar's end links seemed "loose". There is a gap where the bushing meets the bottom of the bar (see pic).
Also when I tried to tighten it went about one turn but now only the inner shaft spins. I stopped there to make sure I'm not messing anything up.

Is this normal design? both sides are similar.

Thanks!!

Put a wrench on each top and bottom nut and tighten them at the same time. If that don't work your shaft it snapped.

Got it, but before I do that.. is the gap normal? The suspension on the car is bone stock and both sides look identical. I can clamp it down if needed, just thought it was odd that both sides looked like that an on otherwise great shape LX.

Thanks!
