Jeff,

I believe the sway bar is stock and the shocks were on the car when I bought it. I don't know what they are.Bud #3400 ( Drive it like there is no tomorrow -- for there may not be ! )

I didn't see where anyone provided any insight to this issue.  

I'd suspect the suspension is moving further than stock which is putting more of a twist on the sway bar and over-loading the frame bracket.  Also the sway bar may be hitting the a-arm or something.

Do you have custom shocks or over-sized sway bars?

Lolita, Lolita, how you keep me busy ! !

Anyone have information on why this might occur? She broke a ( driver's side ) chrome plated one, which I replaced with a painted version. That one is now broken.
Lolita broke another item 30:
