Sheared my Whiteline anti-lift kit bushing!

I was changing to my track wheels today and noticed that the lower bushing from my Whiteline Anti-lift kit was missing. I noticed it was sheared off. Other than my track abuse, what do you guys think happened here?

Here's the other side with the lower bushing intact:


Here's the side with the missing bushing:


Anybody had the same problem? Should I just buy another set and replace the lower bushing? Does whiteline warranty this?

@rallysportdirect, how are the bushings in your car?

Just checked mine and they are still intact. I've got the Perrin braces on my car which provide full overlap from underneath.

a bit more direct steering. increased feedback off-centre etc etc

the problem is that most forum members just install 3-5 items at once so that we don't really know what does what! lol

It was done at a reputable alignment/suspension shop here. I'm sure it was there because I was watching the install the whole time.

Lol! True that. I like it though, it seems it took out most of the "dive" that happens during hard braking on the track.
