Test for bad sway bar end links 850 1993

The test I use is to move them vertically and laterally and look for play. In my son's case one of them just flat fell off which is a dead giveaway but they are like ball joints and tie rod ends, any slop is to much play.

Chances are you have a broken spring seat, they are weak and make the exact noise you describe.
