I'm skeptical as to how big of a potential problem this is; it looks like 2% of Progress sway bar users experience a break. Is everyone doing the install properly? The sway bar replacement instructions in the factory service manual are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT than the bare instructions provided by Progress. There are many missing steps, including the calibration of the end-links prior to torquing.

I'm skeptical about the brackets being made. They look like they'll help manage stress, but will they actually work? Without any testing, how do we know?
Do you have pdf's of the applicable service manual pages. I wouldn't mind having a look. How do you even calibrate non-adjustable endlinks? I can tell you for a fact there's no "calibration" from the factory.
