after my lift i put in the factory front sawybar and i was out snow wheelin the other day and i musta put alot of force on the front axle when i was flexing it over rocks and dirt mounds and what have you. the two links that connect the sway bar to the axle both snapped off at the top bolts with enough force that the links both wedges into my coil springs....lol it was one hell of a day, lemme tell ya.
so anyways i ordered 2 new ones off ebay for 24$ will be putting them in soon after i figure out how to pull them outa my springs lol
but hey thats the only thing ive broken in my jeep so far this thing is a ****ing tank!!

Perhaps your stock links are too short for the 3" lift? They become angled at that height and force on them usually bends the upper threaded part and can snap it.
