Broken sway bar link
This past weekend i was having some fun offroad and managed to break my sway bar link from my 5" rough country lift. Has anyone replaced these and have any recommendations on which to get? I will try to add pics later

If you are off roading hard enough to break one maybe you should just delete it

Super easy to take off my ***... Just spent all afternoon replacing mine... Course they were so corroded and rusted that the bushings had since dissolved off... Whole bolt was damn near fused solid, nothing a little penetrating oil and a torch couldn't handle.
That said, I went with Moog. Couldn't be more happy.

Also Blckwlf if that's a finished picture with your moog links in, you need to tighten them down.... A LOT, should be Torqued to 16-21ft/lbs ... I went with 18 to be safe. They should look like a burger patty and you shouldn't see the edges of the bushings
