    coming home from canceling a pre order on a game and i'm going the long way home on the back roads and i hit a bump not even at a high rate speed but it was a sharp hit and then i come to the stop sign and go to take a left turn and i hear a clunk, and then i'm like "wtf was that" my initial thought was i screwed up my cv joint then go to my dad's house to have him help me look at it and come to find out i snapped my stabilizer/sway/anti-roll bar near the mounting point on the drivers side and cracked it near the mounting point near the end links on the passenger side..i am just glad it wasn't worse haha gonna guy a dorman(doorman?) complete set off ebay then also get some polyurethane bushings from pfyc

    The stock ones are crap anyways. I think your better off getting aftermarket ones like GMPP ones. That way the wont break again.

    correction, they have been cases of gmpp bars breaking. go with dorman front bar, get poly bushings if you want.

    You do realize you can probably save on teh endlinks if you find the part number and buy locally?

    My bad. Never have seen bad reviews over GMPP ones. I learn something new everyday! Thanks for the information Odi!
