just bought SS sway bars from someone on LS1tech, took them outta the package and noticed the front one had a separation on the ends, only way to fully explain is to view pics..just wondering if that's normal or if it's a junk bar.

Re: safe to use or junk?
Please excuse the crappy quality of my phone's pictures but refer to the black seam going thru the metal, it is in fact a slight separation in the metal but at most, if I had to guess, 1mm MAX, might not even be that much but it is visible. Just wondering if I put this on my car it the separation will continue or not.

Scrap - those can't be GM bars.
