I got underneath my Tahoe today and found the passenger side of my front sway bar not attached to anything. Is this missing part of my suspension causing major issues with my suspension/handling of the vehicle? The first pic is of the passenger side the second pic is of the drivers side...pics were taken from the front of the vehicle1fa3ea11423dac9c938d1adb4b5243cb.jpg1943074a153a46940bc0e29c1c761e99.jpg

Where do think is best place to pick up the end links...also while I was down there... looks like I might as well attend to some of the other worn parts...what are some potential replacement/upgrades for these parts?

that one picture of the rubber part there is your bump stop i dont think its supposed to already be compressed. the shocks i would just buy some good name brand ones. end links are just end links whatever the parts store has. or if your up for ordering and waiting for parts you can use rockauto for cheaper prices.

if you don't have the truck jacked up in this picture by the lower control are or wheel then it looks like you might have to adjust the key's, the key's are the long round rods that fit into the control arm with the notches in it, below and to the right of the bumpstop you have circled in yellow above

Could the reason the control arms and bump stops look like this is because of blown shocks?
