First ill give the story.
I was driving on the expressway (express lane) doing about 75. A old man, was cut off in the lane next to mine (and nearly hit), so he swerved into my lane. Big Mistake. I swerved out of his way, but being in the expresslane my space was limited. I neared the wall, and was forced to slam on my brakes knowing that nobody was behind me. As I slam on my brakes, I hear my sub box (contains 2 12" subs) slide back and hit the upper sway bar (what I assume to be functioning as the sway bar). It is the long piece that holds the 2 factory mach amps up in the trunk. After It hit, I heard to loud booms. The only was that I didnt hit anyone (nor did anyone else) so everyone ended safely. Guess thats most important.
However that sway bar became very very loose. I can grab at it and shake it up and down. I also noticed that turns become very awkward. I then kinda forgot about the problem for a day or two. Later I was with my freind in an empty parking lot, and went to do a donut. Big Mistake. You literally heard my back two tires hopping up and down throughout the 180 i did. Only a 180 as the problem became evident right away.
How can I fix this....Any insight?
If we get through this, ill buy everyone a round.
