I have Racing Dynamics front and rear sway bars. The back mounts on the trailing arms have wallowed out to the point that the links are quite loose and emits a very annoying rattle. Do I need to weld a fender washer on each side to restore the original hole location or is there something else to try? I can wiggle the sway bar links quite a bit by hand. I have H&R springs and adjustable Konis.

sounds like the bushings have worn out, just replace them with new and good to go.

The bolts move up and down on the brackets welded to the rear trailing arms. I think it's more than just bushings. That would be too easy. Although you get a "too easy" project at least once in your car life don't you? I'm thinking the holes are well wallowed and elongated. I may have to fabricate complete brackets that are more suited to the application.
