 Yes, the joints on the end links freeze up over time and cause weird noises.
I believe that each runs about $40 from a Saturn retailer's parts
department.

 Just had my rear sway bar links replaced last week due to the exact same
noise. Parts ran about $120 (links+bushings X2, not done at the dealer but
I got them at close to cost) and were non-stock locally, so it took 4 days
to get them in. I also had the rear struts replaced since they had the
backend ripped apart anyway; should have had them replace the fronts too.

 Lane,

Is this job hard to do? Do both or can I get away with just the
noisy one? Any other tips?

The reason I ask is that this is on my list, and surprisingly
neither Chilton's, Haynes, nor even the factory manual have much
to say about it. I assumed that was because it was easy and
obvious, just two bolts--but then my dealer quoted me $288 to
change the pair! This is an hour+ labor per side, so I'm
wondering if there's more to it?

Thanks,

Max

 Literally, it's a 10 minute job per side, and that includes removing the
wheel. It's two nuts on each. Sometimes the nuts are difficult to remove,
so some penetrant and a good set of tools (air tools if you have 'em) make
it easier. Be careful not to bend the bracket which connects them to the
strut body when you're removing that nut.

You can replace just one, but if one is currently bad, the other is soon to
follow. Might as well do both as long as you're at it.

That price they quoted is stupid insane, even if it does include the parts
themselves. With a price like that, I'd look for a different dealer.

I must be doing something wrong. Mine are still original on my 1998 SW2
with 118k miles.
