how tight for sway bar links?
old and new
the other day I noticed that the link on the passenger side was completely missing, so I replaced both up front. How tight is it supposed to be? I tightened it until about 1 inch of treads was pulled through the nut, is that enough?

If using poly replacements, do not smash the poly, only tighten enough so there is no play in the link, else the poly will deform.
