Broken front sway bar - bbjornson - 07-07-2009
So my old Benz has 360,000 miles on it, and a few weeks ago the front sway bar decided that it was time to go. So now it has snapped off on the passenger's side and my tire is now getting ripped to shreds while my handling has become terrible. This is quite the safety hazard and I want to fix it asap as this is my daily driver.
Does anybody have instructions on how to replace the front sway bar (and perhaps other suspension parts) and where I could find another one?
I appreciate all the help. These forums save lives.

That is about where it broke off. Would a shop do this or would I have to find some guy with a welding machine.
I wanted to get a picture but it started raining. I think I might just buy the part so that I can get my car back in good shape.

Where are you located? I was about to give my old one to the scrap metal guy.
