I am installing both front sway bar links on my 2002 Ford Focus SE wagon. I ordered a pair of "MOOG K80066 Stabilizer Bar Link Kits". They did not come with any instructions, and I am totally new to working on cars, so I had a couple of questions about installing them properly:
1) They have attachments for a grease gun. Do I need to grease them out of the box, or do they come pre-greased? How do I know when they need new grease? Also, what type of grease should I use in them, and how much?
2) I installed the first one, and decided to tighten the nuts attaching the ends of the stabilizer link really hard. Thinking about it afterwards, I realized that maybe there was a specific torque they were supposed to be tightened to, and that I might have seriously over tightened them. How tight am I supposed to fasten the nuts? Is it possible that I did permanent damage to the bushings by overtightening them?
Thanks!
