Recently doing my pretrip inspection, it was noticed that the nut that holds the transverse torque rod to the axle, DS, was loose. You could actually rotate the washer. Ridewell recommends torquing all components every 25K miles, but somehow I don't think that is on most peoples list.

Ridewell lists this part as a sway bar ????? and on a car it would be a panhard rod. This is the part that attaches to the frame on the PS & the drive axle on the DS.

Something else to add to checklists
