Didn't snap the bracket, but did lose a mounting bolt from the left rear bracket early in the car's life.

umm... never done that, but I have snapped two sway bar brackets and I have not been hitting the canyons or the track, I think the stress on the frame/body is too much when maneuvering driveways, etc...

Do you mean the metal mounting bracket or the plastic end link? There are several metal end links to choose from if thats what you mean.
Jeez, I just noticed you have T1 sway bars, nevermind...
