Progress swaybar brackets broke AGAIN!!! Solution?!?!?

Ok, I had John Mueller give me an alignment + swaybar. He did an awesome job, but eventually both brackets on the rear sway bar broke...and I just street drive me car. THe OEM Yokohamas lasted 30,000+ miles, so it's not like I thrash the car. John graciously sent out replacements...well, now one of those has broke again.

I remember reading that there were aftemarket brackets/bushings that would fit the Progress 25mm bar. Anyone have any solutions? Those progress brackets are cheap, I think. I need something stronger.

Try the Perrin mounts. The Perrin bar is 25mm so the mounts should fit. They are sold separately too.

Get another set of OEM endlinks from a different heavier car.

In the past I had used truck sway bar endlinks on various track cars to keep them from snapping.
