Sway bar end link failure (lowered)
Right front end link broke while leaving the parking lot at the shop. There is kind of a sharp transition there and I leave at an angle. Heard it pop. Pulled the wheel and there's no fixing it. The end links are a sealed "ball and cup" style with a stud sticking out that mounts on each end.
I did lower the car last week with BMR springs. Might have made a difference? I'm guessing cheap design on these end links. I should have taken a shot of the other end for comparison. What is missing in this photo is the ball ended stud. The nylon bushing inside this boot failed and the ball popped out of the socket.
