Obvioulsly its drivable, but not safe since breaking is compromised by a hard pull.
What is this part?
Can I replace it on my own?
Can I pick it up at most part places?
Is it a torsion bar and if so does it go all the way to the passenger side?
And how hard is it to replace!
Would love some help on this asap. I am at a restaraunt for lunch using thier computer!  Need to decide if I take the car straight home or if I can manage to get to work, then home.
Thanks much!

very easy to replace... you can get them on line for about 18 dollars... i suspect 40-45 at the stealer
