Need a new sway bar bracket

Hey TheJew, what sway bar braket do you recommend I use to replace the ones that came with the progress sway bars? I broke my front driver side today on the track.

Those look very similar to the ones I've got on my RB sway bar. I like that they have the grease fitting so you can grease them pretty easily.

Good grease, can use it as a regular maintenance item to go along with an oil change, it will help your sways from seizing/ getting stuck...
