sway bar link touching coilover

Hey guys,

Just found the source of a knocking sound in the rear end. A broken sway bar link!! The sway bar links are touching the rear suspension. I would like to buy some bigger links but I'm not sure how i am going to be able to get away with this. Any ideas?

the eng link should be connected to the subframe and then the sway bar... what's going on here

it looks like it's broken and just sitting on the coil over, by new OEM or Moog ones

This is a picture from the other side. the link attaches at the top and the shock at the bottom of that plate. I want to go with Moog but i have a feeling they wouldn't fit. the heads on them look way bigger than the oem

toitle - how did this turn out for you? I just got my CL-S and saw that the rear passenger side sway bar link is completely gone and the bracket/plate where it attaches (along with the strut tube in your picture) is broken off. So I get to find a new one of those plates along with sway bar links.
