Cracked subframe from rear swaybar w/ support bracket

I don't know how but someone posted a cracked rear subframe due to a 22 mm swaybar and had the support brackets.

Thats strange, I could have sworn that the support bracket would have stopped the subframe from flexing, PERIOD.Andrew Lee

Doobie doobie do

Mine is still sitting in my garage from my A4 incident. No chance it was going on my S4. I told folks before that it still flexes and that the plastic uplinks still hit the axles on hard cornering, even with the support brackets.

Neuspeed didn't seem to care... They said it was my car. "Manufacturing tolerances". Right.

My 19mm one...that was on my A4...that is now on my S4...is fine

Subframes are intact...and I am not worried. Yes, I check them
