Arrow Broken Sway Bar Bracket

I just noticed that my front left sway bar bracket is broken. Can that be the cause of my front right tire wearing on the outside? Will the broken bracket affect my Alignment? Where can I find a replacement for it, will I have to go to the dealer? Sorry So many questions but I am really fustrated.
Thanks

if your talking about the bracket that goes to the frame then get one from a junkyard. if your talking about the bracket thats shaped like a U that has a bushing inside it you can get one froma junkyard as well. I dont know what causes it maybe hard riding or bad potholes and such but its happened to me. I dont know about the alignment ?

The large bracket that bolts to the frame is like $17 at the dealership. They tend to break a lot on autocrosser's cars. I have like 4 of them in my garage as spares.

The u-bracket that holds the bushing around the swaybar, I don't know how much those are.

Yeah it is the one that goes to the frame, but I'll look in a junk yard.
