Sway Bar Install Help!

I was trying to install the BMR front sway bar on my car. Was tightening the sway bar bushings down according to BMR instructions which show 35 ft/lbs and one of the bolts broke off. Has this happened to anyone else? Any ideas on a fix? As of right now I'm going to be running with no front sway bar...is that a problem if I stick to normal daily driving? Appreciate the help.

That does help. Thank you. Do you know how they got the stud out? Did the have to drill it out from the bottom or is there some other way of getting it out of the subframe?
