Default FUGGG!!! My swaybar!!!!

I heard a noise coming from my rear suspension the other day and when I went to go look what it is , the ST swaybar on the drivers side came off. Now when I say came of , I mean where its mounted on the frame. The piece of the frame broke off!!!!

Here is a pic from another thread of what the ST swaybar looks like. https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...=rear+swaybar.

Has this ever happened to anyone here? If so , what did you do to fix it? Anyone know a good place that can do a good job welding?

its very common. i always tell people when choosing a sway bar layout always go one or the other but not both, either big sway front and small sway rear or small sway front big sway rear.

sometimes people reinforce their subframe to handle the added flex and pressure.
