Bought the jeep used a month or two ago as a project/daily driver. After learning everything I could about O2 sensors, radiators, water pumps, and the like in the hardest way possible, I got the jeep running decent enough without any warning lights on the dash. Then I got my first taste of death wobble at 60 mph on a 4 lane interstate... That was fun. So I started looking for problems but everything in the guide (https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/jeep-wrangler-tj-death-wobble-diagnosis-fixes.9032/#post-1519035) about checking the trackbar bolt, the tie rod ends, and the ball joints seemed within spec. Then I saw IT, or the lack of it to be exact. My driver's side sway bar link is just gone... I'm not sure if this is a symptom of, or the cause of, the death wobble I experienced, but I'm quite certain it doesn't help the situation at all.
So now I am on a mission and this is where I could use some assistance. Is there a recommendation for new sway bar links that won't break the bank and a complete front end bushing set. I figure if I'm going to be under there I may as well replace the bushings just in case the sway bar link fell off during the wobble, which was actually caused by something else I'm not seeing.
Side note: 2000 TJ, 4.0 6cyl, 5spd manual, 2" lift and sitting on 31's (255/75r17).
