Default can I fix this with a mallet?

can I just pound this back straight? Not sure how I did it.

also, anyone know what size bolt and nut and crush sleeve are needed for the upper part of the sway bar end links?

I wouldn't. imagine folding a paperclip back and forth, it becomes very weak.

is the tab that the sway bar link conects to. this often happens when you flex more than the elect disco allows, at least in my rubi, I've seen this happened on a stock rubi too. I have bent this back to normal 3 times already, I should reinforce soon or its going to break.
