Default Q: Saleen front sway bar mount? - 2007 S281 SC

So, looks like the bracket from the front anti sway bar to chassis, core support ? Has snapped off completely ....

can anyone tell me if this bracket is standard ford bracket with wider bushes for the Saleen anti sway bar (apparently the sway bar is bigger than standard ???? ) or if it is a specialist part for the saleen ?

I see lmr have both the bracket kit and bushes for 28 and 34 mm. Does this look like it will suit?

I have yet to pull it off and have a close look .... was hooping for some info before doing so

Default Images of the offending item

Left and right anti-sway brackets (front) and bushes ... 34 mm sway bar .... one of these brackets has clearly sheared off .... interestingly there is oxidation on the break so not a totally new break ... it just finally ??? gave way on a corner today.

I grease and inspect these mounts once a year. (Usually in the springtime.)

Per recommendation in the Saleen Owner's Supplement manual.

Default Saleen sway bar bracket

My stock Saleen sway bar bracket on the left broke at the track. The broken sway bar bracket allowed the front sway bar to move rearward and it punctured the oil filter, creating a huge trail of blue smoke. I then replaced both standard brackets with a FRPP HD brackets.
