Unhappy CV Leaking!! help

So I was changing my oil today and found grease all over the underside of the ds wheel well, springs,etc and found my sway bar end links on both sides completly broken off!!!!!! I had installed a daystar antis-sway bushing kit a couple months back and I haven't really been doing anything out of the normal...except last night I towed a 70somethin' SCout off the freeway for about ten miles after work lastnight. I know there is a thread here but I'm so frazzled cus' I have to run to work now. Any hints on what to do--I just clamped it down with hose clamp and took the endlinks off. Thanks, James W

dude, thats nothing, as long as the issues are unrelated, and the leaking just started



One heck of a twist on your one link though, that seems hard to do, except under extreme curb crawling

Thanks guys, kinda puts me at ease..just didn't know when it happened--i just got my wheels rotated two days ago and they didn't say anything, could've been my last trip up to Evans Creek..but who knows it was just a huge surprise. I'm gonna search here to find the fix. It is a 97' though so maybe it's a good time to replace the wounded!
