Default Sway bar disconnects

So I have the rubicon express sway bar disconnect ,and ever time I go wheeling I bend the bracket that holds them up when disconnected. I was wondering if anybody and a solution to this problem? Or maybe a better system of disconnects?

Maybe not what you want to hear... When I disco I zip tie the links to the sway bar, then cut free to reconnect.

Teraflex used to sell their brackets as a separate part. Not sure if they still do ...

Where did you mount your brackets? I wouldn't think there would be any stress on the sway bar when it is disconnected.
