Yes we have front and rear sway bars. Which one did you snap? If it was the rear, you should have jsut bought the RRM sway bar and perches. To pay $225 and keep the stock rear bar = teh suck.

rrm bar and perches makes a world of difference from what I have read. Might as well get a tie bar while you are at it too.

Did you look at the "broken" part? I'd be skeptical of a sway bar snapping. If you know, I'd like to know exactly what broke.

My front sway has taken a major beating.. how in the world did you snap yours and nothing else on the car? Especially the 23mm front one...

I've seen them break, but haven't heard of it on an RA before now. Usually it was on older (80s-90s) Chevys that I've seen broken sway bars.
