I snaped my front right tie rod last week while mudding. I replacd that no problem. While I was doing that I noticed a part that attaches from what I think is the front sway bar to the suspension. I dont know what this part is, so I cant order it and fix it. Any one know?

Sway Bar dog bone that goes from swaybar to lower a-frame

This is the first tie-rod breakage that I have heard of from just mudding. I thought most were broken in more severe conditions like wheeling over rock terrain etc.?

Is it also common for them to bend/break from just mudding? (wipes off brow)

In parking lots. That's funny because it's true.

Did you get the breakage on video? If so, don't post it.
