Here are the Raceland end links next to the old (stock) ones (which had utterly blown joints/bushings – they were moving completely freely):

Anybody successfully removed the intermediate rear brake lines without dropping the subframe? If so, please share

Got a part# to the sway bar links?

The rear brake lines on mine were rusted pretty bad, watched many YouTube vids to see what people where doing to avoid damage while removing rusty brake lines. Apparently heat is the fix that's how I got mine off without damage and took 1-2mins total, just don't go crazy as the fuel tank is close by. I used a propane torch from the local hardware store
