Replacing drop links drama!

[toughguych]

How the hell do I put new drop links on my rear anti-roll bar??
Got the old one off but even with fairy liquid I simply could not put the new one on!
Gave up and put the old one back on for the time being!!
Mega frustrated!

From my failing memory, it's just a question of fairy liquid/brute force and may be a lump hammer ?

Threaded rod and odd pieces of thick steel with holes in them, plus a few nuts.

Can you expand a little Bri, I am with you but need a little more info.

Cheers.

Basicly build a little home made vise.
Ya, I got it.
Thanks.

Put the new droplink in a saucepan of hot water and gently simmer for a few minutes to soften the rubber (do not let it boil though). They are quite easy to push on when the rubber is warm.

Thanks Pete,
I did put it in a cup of boiling water for 60 seconds first time round
Will try your idea though

Ta!
