If they were not OE bushings, they may be plain rubber, and not have the Teflon liner. I'd pull them out and inspect... if they're the wrong ones, toss 'em and buy the proper OE bushings. I'd also get the new style brackets since yours have been patched up a couple times already.

Well I am not sure as I purchased awhile ago. But yesterday I checked and both sides are broken again! I can't believe it! I am going to order two new mounts and new bushings and try again. I can't imagine why it keeps breaking the mounts. I definitely have the rubber bushings in the right place as they can only go one way.

I think it's time you uploaded some photos of your broken brackets, while still mounted on the car...

Well they are just broken. I have ordered new ones and I will jack the car up and then install and let it down. Curious tho' if the sway bar rotates in the bushings it should not matter if jacked up or not right?

It does not matter jacked up or on the ground as long as its level side to side. As others have said, it is an ANTI-sway bar. Good luck. Thanks
