The swaybar bushing retainer bolts often snap off . They are threaded into square nuts that are tack welded to the underside of the bracket , but the clearance is so tight with the control arm bushing bolts, there's little room to place a backer nut . I have tried with limited success and a big hammer and chisel to whack away the square nuts . It is a tough one . The other thing to do is drill oversize and tap new threads and upgrade the bolts that hold the retainer . Another possible fix is to try to send a bolt upwards through the bracket and use some JBweld to keep it in place , then use a nylock retainer nut on the bolt to secure the swaybar bushing like an exhaust stud .
