Crap, that sucks. What part broke? The bar bracket to the mount? Or the mount to the frame? Because the mount to the frame would be far worse

Not sure by your description, but it was the part there the end link connects to the frame. The same area where yours broke in the pic.

Is it imperative to get this fixed ASAP or is it fine for a while? I've got no money to get it fixed or a mig to do the fix myself.

Oh okay, sorry I was thinking where the bar mounts up to the underbody of the car.

Your car isn't going to spontaneously combust or anything, but it definitely hurts your cornering ability, so you'll want to get it addressed when you can. Unfortunately since it already broke, Highrev's reinforcing plate isn't going to help you; you'll have to get it welded... so while you're at it, you might as well weld in a few additional washers.

Sure they will...If just the exterior hole ripped out he can bolt them up and utalze those as the final hole
