stablizer bar

I don't mean to sound dumb, but as I took things apart I noticed that the stablizer bar had a forward bend in the middle of it...is this right...all other cars S bars are straight that i've seen...to me, it looks like it got bent during a tow or something...

It's bent. Your right, towing did that.

Now you have a perfect reason to go and purchase a thicker bar! And you don't sound dumb at all; actually, many of your questions are the same as mine, you just post them sooner.
