Finally snapped my front swaybar on my 2021 Can An X3 after 2600 miles. Actually surprised is lasted this long. On my old X3 I broke 2 stock front swaybars, the links a few times, and even an Eibach front swaybar. Seems they improved the swaybar for 2021.
I think it broke when I sent it a littler farther than anticipated over a riser/transition. It kicked my car up higher than I thought and off to the side a bit. Landed on my front drivers side wheel first and I think the impact was enough to snap it. Interestingly the stock swaybar link did not break. In the past when I have broken a front sway bar it broke in the middle or in the mounting bushing.
It has been a while since I have driven a X3 without a front swaybar. Car likes to push more in the turns and you have to set up for it. I will be ordering a new one as they are around $80 on Rocky Mountain ATV.
