Default Anybody snap their front sway bar???

I had a front wheel bearing failing, so I grabbed one and replaced it. When I was pulling everything apart I saw the front sway bar snapped about 2 inches from where it mounts to the links. Anyone else had this happen? Seemed strange, although I have cracked two wheels on that side and had my wheels stolen, so who knows what else has been broken.

Sounds like you hit a few curbs

I found mine was cracked and broken where the links mount... It's a common issue that's plagued w body cars due to it being a hollow bar... I got a new one from napa which was the doorman kit... Doorman makes a solid bar to prevent it from breaking again
