My Eibach broke just like yours last week they shipped me a replacement, I may try and sell mine and buy a TTR or a Progressive Eng. in So. Calif.

Not a good design...... At least they replace it for you, but they really need to re-design the unit.

This one seems to fit a little tighter,maybe I won't have any problems

Last one was on for almost 2 years,maybe a first run from Eibach?

Hope that works out for ya guys..
This design puts the twisting force right at the front bolt holes, after time metal fatigue will take it's course.

my replacement Eibach sway bar is about the same as the one that broke where the one they sent you in Florida is much better, I sent an e-mail to Eibach asking when the replacement breaks will they replace it?
