Havent seen one with a quick disco bent till now, unless off roaded without discoing which wouldn't make sense.
Have seen them bent on no e-disco jk's with too short links on-road though.

I grabbed a propane torch and the biggest crescent wrench I've got (15") but it won't move an inch. I guess I'll try to find a shop that can grind the bracket off and weld a new one on? I don't really want to drive around too long on the street without the swaybar. My long-term plan was always to upgrade to a D44 when I destroyed this axle, but I was expecting the destruction to be a little more spectacular.
