Sounds like a defective swaybar to me. They should bend and not break! Like a spring.

Who made it?

The closest I've come to breaking a swaybar was when i sheared off one of the front swaybar mounts. I'm curious who made it too.

I bought it from Topline. I talked to John he is going send me another one for free. I was only doing 15mph and I was about 100 feet from my house when it happened so it wasnt too bad.
