If you install a lift kit, even a mild 2'' kit, things change... you need an alignment job.
If you smacked something hard enough to break the sway bar link, then something may have been knocked out of alignment. Even in a typical car where you run up on a curb hard, it should be checked. Normal off-roading won't hurt it, but a session of serious boony-bashing might knock something off kilter.

So the alignment was done when I got the superlift installed. I have a sneaky feeling that they never quite tightend things down when they did the alignment in the first place.

After having a lift installed, I like to drive a round for several miles to let the suspension settle and then retorque everything back down before getting an alignment. I'll find places where I can articulate the suspension really good just to make sure everything is working like it should. Once alignment is done its good to go.
