Instructions for Replacing the Drop Link

Model: Renault Laguna MK 3, Laguna III, MK III, X91, Laguna 3 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Control arm

If you notice noise from the front end while driving over rough terrain, it is likely that the drop link (commonly known as the stabiliser link) connecting the shock absorber to the stabiliser bar has been damaged. To replace it, lift the vehicle on a hydraulic lift and remove the front wheel. Insert a spanner onto the nut securing the drop link, then use another spanner on the ball joint pin to hold it steady during removal, from both the shock absorber side and the stabiliser bar side. Remove the old drop link, insert the new one, and secure it in the same manner. It is recommended to replace both drop links.
