Never know what you'll find broken...
I was standing under my car talking on the phone last night. Looked up and saw this -



Looks like it's been broke for awhile. I'm glad it didn't have a noticeable negative impact on handling at 160+.

It's a good excuse to reply the swaybars through!

WOW! I would have through you'd notice that as soon as you tried to turn or do anything with the wheel.

That's scary. I would think you would have heard that snap.
How long do you think you've been driving it like that?

I haven't had the car up in the air so it could have been like that for months. Interesting thing is, I've done alot of hard driving in that time and thought that the car handled great. Goes to show that things can break on "new" cars too. Mine only has about 32k on the odometer.

I replaced mine with REM adjustable links instead of going the BWoody route.
