1996 ford ranger front end stabilizer bar link, its purpose & effect if broken?
i have a novice understanding of vehicles.
i was examining the undercarriage of my son's truck.
the front/left stabilizer bar link is broken.
i'm guessing the bar's purpose is to make quick turns smoother and not to sway as much when straightening out.
what will the truck do with a broken link?
is it difficult to replace?
is this a perfect kodak moment for my son & i to share?
or need i take it to a mechanic instead?
thank you everyone for your advice.

Anchors the sway bar. Reduces body roll in cornering. Flopping around loose it is not performing its function. Can make the vehicle unstable in corners. A good DIY project. Read up, have at it.
