Sway Bar

Any 00-03 Xers out there have any problems with the sway bar. I thought my controller arms were a problem because of the knocking under the floor-board while driving but the repair guy said he didn't see a problem with the controller arms but, my sway bar was lose.

Yea, it's common for the sway-bar end-links to develop play.

If there's play in the sway bar end-links, should I go ahead and replace them? I'm sure they may loosen again if they did once before.

$65 for a pair of those and there's a DIY here on the X5World homepage.
