Stabilizer Bar Bolt Sheared
#1

So I'm under my Burb and see that the stabilizer bar link is completely sheared off on the right side. I just bought this truck and I know I haven't hit anything to break it. Anyone else have this happen to them? Anything else I should check for damage?
I'm not concerned about it as nothing is bent, but I'm more surprised that the dealer didn't catch it, especially since they replaced the tires.

I could see how it could be missed, everything but the top nut is there...
Did they do an alignment? if not, they probably never looked...
If they did an alignment I would *think* that a brief inspection would have been in order of the undercarriage...
You can get replacement end link bushing, bolts and the like just about anywhere, I would suggest the urethane over the rubber ones...also consider installing new bar bushings that have the zerk fittings that can be greased...
