Noisy Sway Bar Links?

I'm having the same knocking sound coming front my front passenger side when going over speed bumps or uneven road at slow speeds. I checked rockauto and it only shows 1 front stabilizer bar link, is that correct or should their be one on each side?

There is no differentiation of left or right on the stabilizer bar link on the front. Just get two for both side.
 
Just installed the rear sway links. Lemme tell you what a bitch of a job to get the upper bolts loose. Almost 2 hrs to do something that looks simple. Make sure you guys PB Blast the nuts a day in advance. Going to do the fronts tomorrow.

So, is the clunking noise gone?

Confirmed! I had a very concerning clunking when shifting into reverse and back into drive, sometimes while turning the steering wheel. I ordered front stabilizer bar links for both front sides (MOOG brand) and installed them. Once the fx was jacked up, I used a floor jack to lift the control arm, so that the bottom bolt of the stabilizer link was accessible. I also had to buy a swiveling bit for the impact gun. I bolted the bottom one first, then I used the floor jack under the control arm to adjust the height so the top bolt would slide in. Both bolts should then be tightened to 75 ft/lb. Easy install and no more clunking! This is a great forum. Cheers
