Default ok... what is this??

I noticed I'm missing the part on the passenger side. It kinda looks like a mini-shock or some kind of stud that holds the brace that wraps around by the axles (sway). It's held up by a bracket at the top of it with two bolts.

Will not having it on one side make some kind of noise with my rearend or wheels?

the part is just to the left and behind these shocks:





another pic but from the passenger side this time

So your saying you don't have your sway bar mounted in correctly? It's bolted in on one side but not the other?

that is correct. what bad is it? it wouldn't make the back end of the car to make noises once I'm going faster than 35mph would it?

I can't tell for sure, but by looking at the last pic, it looks the swaybar endlink isn't connected to the swaybar on the passenger side. If it isn't, I'm sure it would make noise.

I'm sure if it isn't bolted down on the one side it would make noise.
