Now I have another issue - I need a ball end with a bigger thread to fit the RPM arm so I can connect the front sway bar. Any solutions?

remove the two screws holding the sway bar on, and remove sway bar. no more issue.

Went to my LHS and actually found a ball link with a thread big enough to fit. Oddly enough, it was an AE part and its even gold coloured :mrgreen:

Now I just need to find the other part.
