Sway Bar Link Damaged
I was doing some mild offroading and I bent the link for the front sway bar. It has two ball joints one at each end. The one end came off completely. Is there a sronger replacement for this item??

I'm sorry I can't help you very much, but please keep us posted, I'd like to know the outcome and resolution for this problem...
Carol Rovers, the guy who invented M.A.R.S. had made some really nice quick disconnects for the front sway bar, but now they're no longer sold. But I know there have been a few people that have ordered quick disconnects that are made for jeeps, and have been able to make them work for thier P38....

You probably need to extend your swaybar links. You can do this by installing longer links (like the JKS quickdisconnects) or by installing spacers on the swaybar mount. I don't like the idea of installing spacers on the swaybar mount 'cause your swaybar will hang down a few more inches. Do you have a pic of what part bent?

Bent Swaybar link
I purchased a new part and replaced it. I will try and find a quick disconnect. I have the broken part here and I will try and take some photos.

No warning. I hit a bump a little hard and I think that was the issue. I did not feel the trail as much as the others did because of the air suspension. The truck went through everything. I am going to try and find a quick disconnect for it.It was an inexpensive repair. Which was a good thing. I am amazed that with the huge swaybar the piece is pretty small.
