Default Rear sway bar link on 2007 Saturn Aura

I hit a curb and broke my rear knuckle. I rebuilt it but I can't get the new rear sway bar link on. How do you get the rubber on to the bar?

They should just slide on BEFORE you install the link. That is if you're just replacing and talking about the link. If you post a picture of what you replaced exactly, then we can probably help. Sometimes a little silicone lube can help too.

It looks like there is rib of some kind on the bar and the link needs to fit over it. I usually use wd40 and a big pry bar if you can get some leverage and press it on.
