If you are talking about the rear swaybar link, there are new bolts with the bushings at aftermarket stores. You need to get under the vehicle and replace the bolts which usually rust to bits. I do not know what type of shelter you have to work in or available tools, but if you want to do it yourself it can be a pain to get the rusted parts off.

It is worse with the fuel tank and Air suspension bags in the area. If one side of the link fell down, for the Winter I would replace the bushings and bolt on the bad side and leave the remaining side go till Spring.

If you have a hoist, or are paying someone, put the full set of parts in. The top of the mounts are difficult to service and you can easily lose a wrench in the frame if I am thinking about the correct Model. You do have to overcome the flex built into bar by positioning the axle to minimize the tension.

If your question is about a different chassis link please advise and I will try to help you.

I have a 96 crown vic intercepter that is hesitating when i push on the gas.also the check engine light is flashing

When the check engine light is flashing, it means that the system has detected a misfire condition that can cause damage to the catalytic converter if not repaired. Try to drive the vehicle as little as possible until the problem can be addressed. Look for bad coil pack or shorted injector or driver

Cruise control on my 96 Ford Crown Vic has stopped working. What should I check first?

I dont know if they had it in 96 but there is something called a speed control deactivation switch. Maybe check your owners manual about that.
