Getting ready to order MOOG front sways.

I'm going to place my order for the front sways tomorrow and wanted to make sure I get evrything right. Are the sway bars universal? That is, does one fit both left and right side? And, is the proper part # K750012?

Stabilizer links , That is the Moog part # i put on my SS . Have fun getting off the originals , P.I.T.A.

There are threads for the easiest way to replace them on this site.

A couple end joints on my original links were so badly worn, I twisted then right off the ball at each end. Vice grips then made it easy to get the ball studs off.

Thanks! I've been around for almost month, having picked up my HHR on 7/16. I'm located in the Ashland area.

The Moog K750012 are the shorter type (approx 10 inches) some HHR have some close to 12 inches long so measure yours before buying. I just replaced mine a week ago and had no big problems. The top nut came right off with my impact gun. Bottom shaft spun but you can grab the inside of the stud with an open end wrench or vise gripes. right side is same a left. Top and bottom nuts are 18MM (FYI) Have both sides of the front end up in the air to take the load off the links.
