Sway Bar Endlinks -- Tips? DIY?

As of recently, I get a small amount of chatter/light clunking at road speeds... On smooth pavement everything is nice and fine. Tight, no noise. But over anything uneven or a crack in the road, there's a mild clunk I can feel span the entire width of the car for a brief moment before it settles and goes away.

So since we're in "blizzard" conditions here in new england, I figured I'd post now and have a few replies before I can get under the car to start wiggling things.

Are the endlinks DIY-able?

Thanks!

Might be worth it to just replace the sway bar in a whole. If your end links are going, it's a matter of time until you start hearing the squeak from the bushings.
